    As informed earlier, the state will be back to 2008-13 era, when BJP was ruling...a freehand to right wing extremists..

    Please respect the holy Places. Don`t play with God. We Catholics believe in the Holy Eucharist that Jesus real present. You threw Jesus away. May God judge your action. Jesus forgive them because they don't know what they do.

    This is simply political. They want to drag Christians into fear mongering and hate mongering. We as Christians should simply ignore the provocation. Clean up the mess and move on as the police do the investigation. Our God is powerful enough to defend Himself. At least He is more powerful than us, human beings. I won't be surprised if some so called secular parties are involved in this messy act. God forgive them.

    Don't know why these incidents keep happening when the BJP is ruling? I am not pointing fingers at anybody but it is better that these morons are caught immediately and if these are incidents created by right wing extremists or if these are plots by detractors to malign the BJP government , then should be exposed and severe punishment meted out to whoever is responsible for instigating and creating mischief which divides people.

    We believe that Jesus is truly present in the Holy Eucharist (Holy communion), whoever has committed this crime with whatever intention, has committed not knowing the truth. My only prayer is that they may be forgiven by the Lord Jesus himself.

    I think the act is intentional and the culprits knew exactly what they were doing. They wanted you to hit where it hurts most. But you should be graceful enough to send them a message that nothing has happened. Just rearrange things and ignore.
    The more you make noise, the more they will feel successful.

    We should wait till the police nab the culprits.
    The culprits should be punished.
    I believe Christians are broad minded enough to understand the intentions of the culprits.
