A young man was taken into custody after vandalizing a century-old statue of Jesus inside a Catholic Church, Our Lady of Mount Carmel, in California and reportedly began reciting verses from the Quran.

Muslims believe that representations of the human figure are idolatrous, and that Christians are idolatrous and under the curse of Allah for believing Jesus is the Son of God (cf. Qur’an 9:30). And so, this.

Correction a young muzzie terrorist went to the church to “….., …. and destroy.” property which did not belong to him.
muzzies fear competition; that’s why they declare their fake ‘god’ the “greatest.” and they fear Truth, knowing that some are brave enough to defy their terrorism because islime is all based on lies and evil.
OLD GUY says
Islam uses our laws to protect its self. While violating our laws in the name of Islam to destroy us from within. If this person is here illegally or on a visa he should be DEPORTED after he serves a jail sentence for his hate crime and destruction of property.
Patton says
So much for the shared heritage of what the NY Times, NPR and (little viewed) CNN love to defer to as the “three Abrahamic faiths”. Guess the muz-scum missed that part of his comparative religious studies program at Berkeley. And it tells us a lot about the mainstream media that whenever a church or synagogue’s desecrated, they always have to throw in the word mosque. Which of course, is not a house of God. It’s a house of the devil.

OT boo hoo, he’s said he was sorry…a sorry excuse for a ‘man.’
“Minnesota man who pocketed cash in kids’ meal scheme gets prison time despite ‘I’m sorry’ apology”
“A Minnesota man was sentenced on Monday to more than a year in prison after pleading guilty to creating fake invoices to a nonprofit that falsely claimed it served 1.5 million meals to children in need within seven months.
Abdul Abubakar Ali, of St. Paul, Minn., was one of nearly 100 defendants charged in the “Feeding Our Future” fraud scheme, which the Department of Justice (DOJ) claims exploited a federally-funded child nutrition program during the COVID-19 pandemic. Ali pleaded guilty in 2022 to one count of conspiracy to commit wire fraud, but he was initially charged with conspiracy to commit wire fraud, wire fraud, and conspiracy to commit money laundering, according to the DOJ.”
After the year and day, he should be deported. He can then spend the rest of his sorry life elsewhere.

Not a big fan of artwork depicting Jesus (not because I think it’s a sin) but this lowlife needs to do some hard time and it’s a good thing Christians aren’t raging lunatics like islamists are because this action is senseless and proactive
somehistory says
I agree, 40. I don’t believe any artwork like that can do my Lord justice. It’s all imperfect.
And yes, he needs to spend some time behind bars. If not a citizen, or only naturalized, he could be sent somewhere where he won’t be so free. They are not in fear of any Christian doing to them what they deserve.
Tony says
This is another daily attack by Muslims against Christians and Non-Muslims all over the world as taught by Allah in Islam’s Qur’an(Qur’an 9:5, 29, 111; 49:15; 98:6-7, etc.). Muslims use Criminal-Terrorist-Gang Organizations from Mosques, Muslim Homes, Muslim Schools, Islamic Centers, etc. against Non-Muslims to Islamize the society under Muslim conquest. Allah in Qur’an 9:29 commands, “Engage in war with those who do not believe in Allah nor in the last day[Non-Muslims]. Nor forbid what Allah and his messenger forbid[via Islamic Law], nor believe in the religion of the truth[Islam] among those who have given the book[Jews and Christians] until they pay the jizyah[Extortion Payment] out of hand and they are subdued[disgraced].”

Thanks for the link, GE.
Burglary, breaking and entering…..the prosecutor should throw the book, charge him with every thing possible. Set an example.
Winston 101 says
GE,
Thanks for the link.
After reading the “nice” idiot Pastor’s assessment, judgement and response to the vandal and his vandalism – I think : If you can’t spot such an obvious danger to your own church, that you saw with your own eyes, and don’t seem much bothered by the damage done to your church then I guess I won’t bother caring much either. Good luck with Islam in the future.
Troybeam says
October 7, 2023, the start of Islamic conquest the world over. Starts small and grows depending where and how bold.
Carmel by the sea, a church entered and statue destroyed, throw the book at this person. Vandalism is a crime no matter who destroys items.
somehistory says
Depending on State laws…..trespassing, criminal trespass, destruction of property, vandalism, hate, unlawful entry, and if there was someone in the church at the time, that could increase the charges, depending on the state law.
Jim says
We Christians believe we are under the blessing of God for believing Jesus is the Son of God.
Some of the blessings which result from this belief:
* We become children of God Almighty.
* All of our sins are forgiven.
* We have an eternal home in heaven.
* Jesus will never leave or forsake us.
It is really sad that Muslims are deceived on this most important of all points, and will therefore receive the curse of God after they die.
Joe1 says
Based on what’s happening in Europe, we can expect much more of this.
Westman says
He wasn’t there to save Christians from idolatry, he was there to earn chips from Allah and his friends.
Being a rare statue it puts the perp’s crime in the felony category with a very high or no bail.
Of course, though its schools are failing, its university graduates have mostly useless degrees, there is real crap on the streets, and it can’t afford the, “High Speed Train To Nowhere”, California will excercise its superior thinking to find a way to blame Christians – those lovers of each other who, “… cling to guns or religion or antipathy toward people who aren’t like them or anti-immigrant sentiment(Obama diatribe)”.
My, how attitudes have changed since Obama’s unwise remarks. No group has burned bridges for Muslims more than Muslims.The citizens of every Western nation are now realizing what their leaders are trying desperately to squash – Islam and Democracy are, and will always be, incompatible.
