St. Oswald’s Church in Marktl am Inn, Bavaria – the parish where Pope
Benedict XVI was baptized and offered his first Mass – was vandalized
with spray paint during September, according to the Observatory on
Intolerance and Discrimination against Christians, which documents
anti-Christian incidents in Europe.
“A bust of the former Pope in front of the main entrance has been spray
painted twice,” according to the Observatory.
“In the first case the
delinquent has been identified; the second case remains unclear.”
