Six American religious sites have been targeted in anti-Christian attacks recently. This shocking development comes as more and more on the political left aim to further erode religious liberty. We hope the legal system catches up to these hooligans during this dangerous trend. Here are the sacred Christian sites under attack that the mainstream media has ignored!

  1. It is good that statues are being destroyed….Exodus 20:4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.

    Mary worship is blatant idolatry and all those who pray to this dead woman and expect her to save them will die in their sins and here is why: John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life: no man can come to the Father except through Me.

    1. does the Gospel permit vandalism, arson, and destruction of religious figures or sites you disagree with? If so, please site the Scripture.

      1. You seem to be trying to equate these attacks as if the Catholic church is NOT blatantly being hypocrites. I believe that God is allowing the destruction of IDOLS because He is against them now as He always has been. The Catholics believe tradition. So I will ask you where in the Gospel God authorizes idolatry and praying to anyone other than Him, through His Son, Jesus?

        1. thou shall not hath any other gods before me.i mean come on it’s the first commandment!if you hate the catholics or any other religion so much then become an athiest!

        1. And with this feeble attempt, you fail to negate the truth of what they were saying. So I challenge you to find a single verse that authorizes idolatry, or praying to saints or Mary OR asking a mere man for forgiveness. GOTCHA.

  2. I see that the article only mentions Catholic sites. What about St. John’s Episcopal Church in Washington DC?

    1. According to Catholics, all protestants are heretics and as such are actually hated. More so since we point out their real hypocrisy and the fact that they are addressed in II Timothy 3:5.
      NO POWER.

  3. Catholics are their own worst enemy. Too much of that ‘turn the other cheek’ nonsense. It’s time to face these issues head on and retaliate. Nothing is gained by looking weak.

  4. I am a Protestant. Specifically a Nazarene. All of these “sites” were Catholic and yes, the Catholics practice idolatry. Along with many other things the Bible forbids such as claiming that a man can forgive sins and praying to saints and Mary. No, Catholics are not CHRISTIANS.
    Yes, they do much damage with their “doctrines”
    But do not be deceived. Those attacking them will not stop with Catholics. They hate REAL Christians more than they do Catholics. Something about not being able to attack us for hypocrisy.
    Do not be deceived. God is not mocked.

  5. PEOPLE! You are all missing the point, an attack on any religion I’d an attack on our freedoms, and Christians wake up, try and attack the Jewish or Muslim faith and see what happens, you will regret it. So Christians stop the attacks now or forever be a target.

    1. Christians who do not fight those who want to take GOD out of the equation , especially America are no better than those who want to take GOD out! Onward Christian soldiers march on to war! Socialism and communist are one in the same they are trying to ruin America and it takes one small step at a time, Americans you better stop them! Be a tool for GOD!

  6. I am a Catholic. You need to get the facts before you criticize. We do not worships idols. Statues are reminders who God has given us, all of us, the Blessed Mother and the Saints. We ask them to pray FOR us. Just like you ask people to pray for you. We do not pray TO them. Do you keep a picture of your kids or family in your wallet? It’s the same thing thing. They are reminders of the love we have in our lives. I wouldn’t call you an idol worshipper. We are not heretics and we do NOT hate Protestants or anyone. That is absurd. We pray for everyone because we love them. The Catholic Church is the Church founded by Christ Himself and has been around for over 2000 years. I believe that is why all the Catholic bashing and hatred is toward us, and has been for centuries, because it is the True Church, and Satan know this.
