Both God and the law shall punish these vandals for this heinous act. Art (statues, paintings, etc.) of our Lord and Savior does Him honor, as it shows our faith in Him, and our gratitude towards Him dying for our sins. Amen, bornagain2! Well said.

No matter what you may want to believe about the Catholic faith, it was still wrong for anyone to destroy the church's property. What gives people the right to damage things like this? I would love to see what some punk would do if the tables were turned and their house was targeted for graffiti or other vandalism. I bet the odds it wouldn't go over too well. I hope the church is able to fix the damage.

God is watching and they will get what they deserve. Never mess with a church especially Catholic church. "You reap what you sow". Idiots plain Idiots.

I believe we must refer to the Second Commandment of God, delivered to Moses and related in Exodus, Chapter 20. In this set of instructions we find that the building of graven images is strictly forbidden. A statue of Jesus is anathema to God, as it is a graven image and He has specifically forbidden them. That statue may have been destroyed by some of God's angels or possibly by a bolt of lightning. It is difficult to know exactly.

SATXLady, while i agree with you that it's just cement, it meant something to the people at the church. just because it may not mean anything to you, doesn't mean it's ok for someone to destroy. it's just disrespect of others' property...it's rampant in this city

It's just cement. Cement it back on. Im sure these cement statue worshipers will still worship it. The city needs to find real be-headers of humans.
