    One has a responsibility as a citizen to defend one's liberties and rights. One has to understand the context in which a statement was made.

    There is no need to get so sentimental about the damage to the Church. Of course, it needs to be investigated but do not make a big deal by protesting. It could have been done by one drunkard or crazy person. We should not blame any community for his mischief. Try to catch the culprit, understand why he has done it, advice him and if possible rehabilitate him to be a good citizen. That is the meaning of turning the other cheek that Jesus taught us. This is the main doctrine of Christianity.

    Nice to read comments..to forgive and forget ...with few quotes... How about someone pelt stones at your home, breaks the windows, doors and wounds you when you are asleep? Then will this apply?... Wont you file a police case? Its easy to quote passages sitting in a safe zone, when it happens to others..

    What purpose will this protest serve?.It will only give ammunition to people with hatred in their minds. Forgive and forget. Is this such a major incident worthy of a protest.

    Now let’s pray for them those who persecute us
    Because Christ also did 2000 years back hanging on cross. He prayed abba father forgive them
    Mathew 5 versus 43 onwards
    44] But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; ... [46] For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye?
    Acts 7:48 says However, the Most High does not dwell in temples made with hands, as the prophet says:
    Again acts 7:49 and following
    Heaven is My throne,
    And earth is My footstool.
    What house will you build for Me? says the Lord,
    Or what is the place of My rest?
    Has My hand not made all these things?’

    Hope everyone reads this message before hit the button dislike. This is a beautiful message who hates us who can read and correct thier mindset. Christ is love and love itself translates into christ. So people let's love one another and build the temple of god on this earth before we depart this world. Hate to nothing except build walls and enemies. Many nations are destroyed and in war just because of hate
