| When things have started coming back to normal in Mangalore, such incidents again spark off violence. I hope this particular incident remains a isolation. We only pray that peace & tranquility prevails back in gangolli, a place we like so much. |

| I am deeply disturbed by the recent incidents happening in Karnataka, and peaceful places like Gangoli. I do appreciate the immediate action plan by the Bihsop and the faithul. We need to analyse "WHY" and have to do some serious thinking. Fr. Alphonse and the parishoners My Prayers are with you. ONE among YOU Fr. Pius Fernandes, SJ |

| EARLIER TIMES PEOPLE ARE UNEDUCATED BUT STILL LOVING ONE ANOTHER AND LIVING IN PEACE. PRESENT TIME PEOPLE ARE EDUCATED BUT DISTURB ONE ANOTHER AND LIVING IN DISTURBANCE & NOT IN PEACE. WHY? MAY BE, THE STYLE OF EDUCATION IS WRONG OR WE ARE WRONG IN OUR ACTIONS. I PRAY TO ALMIGHTY GOD MAY TAKE OUT THE 5 EVILS - KAMA, KRODHA, LAVA, MADHA, MATHSARA FROM OUR BODIES AND BLESS US WITH PURE LOVE. ANTHONY I. DIAS |

| It is not only shocking but very sad moment to hear about this incidents in a remote peaceful corner of Mangalore. The anti-social elements are moving freely in the City without any fear of punishment by those concerned as the Govt is totally unconcerned about what is happening under the present rulers of the State. Christians are peace-loving community and these fanatics take advantage of this. However God is great and His punishment will come upon them during their life time in some way or other and these fanatics will realise this. R Fernandes |

| Dear Sathish your understanding of God differs a lot from the God in the Bible which says forgive those who trespass against us (the Our Father prayer) as Jesus thought. Also Jesus said bless those who persecute you.What's the difference between them and us is we have the message of Divine Unconditional Love and the Grace to forgive. |

| It is a very disturbing piece of news to all the believers, especially the Christians. Yet as many readers point out, the material elements may be destroyed but the spirit will never be defeated with these cowardly acts. One hopes that the administration intervenes and punishes the guilty. |

| I hope that the people of Kundapura write the Govt. (Home Dept) at the Center because at the state level no action is forthcoming. This has to be nipped in the bud. Take to task the miscreants. The local bodies unite to keep away such elements from all places of worship. |

| These kind of dastardly attacks on any religous institution or indivisual in our state is totally unacceptable. The District administration & State Government needs to put an end to this nuisance instead of being mute spectators. Today its a church tomorrow it might as well be a temple. |

| This is the work of Cowards who have done this in the Night. New Statues can be installed but the People's Unity cannot be threatened and broken. We always say listen from one ear and leave it from the other ear. In the same way ignore this incident and install a new one. How many they will break 1, 5, 10 or 20 and they will get tired. |

| Good work! You have opened the doors of hell for your selves (this is what I call digging ones own grave). As one gentleman rightly said, you can destroy the material things in life (which in itself is never long lasting as your own life) but the spirit is (as would be with you too). So be it and be prepared to face the consequences and the wrath of the lord. We as christians can only pray that enlightenment comes to all of you who do not understand that the need of the hour is peace and prayer if you do not understand this....you are in for the worse to happen. |

| Our Lady appeared to Bernadette for the first time in Lourdes on 11 February 1858. I was at the grotto on 08 February 2009. The temperature was zero degree celsius. Thousands of pilgrims come to the grotto for physical and inner healing. Some of them take a dip in the water. Practically all carry water from the spring. I too had the privilege to take a dip in the water and brought 1.5 litre water from the spring to distribute among my Hindu, Muslim and Catholic friends. By destroying the statue of Bernadette the graces which she and billions of pilgrims received since 1858 cannot be destroyed. May St. Bernadette send abundant blessings on those who destroyed her statue. Those who try to destroy material things will not succeed to destroy the spirit. |

| From my childhood the Catholic community at Gangolli Parish lived in harmony and peace with other communities. Miscreants do not believe or practice any religion. Their practice the religion of hatred,jealousy and destruction. May God enlighten their minds for repentence and conversion of mind and heart. |
