Profanation and solidarity - Church of the Flagellation

The Franciscan community and Christians in Jerusalem were hurt by a new incident of religious fanaticism when a Jew desecrated the Chapel of Condemnation in the Flagellation complex last Feb. 2, knocking down and disfiguring a statue of Jesus with a hammer. A Mass of reparation was celebrated two days later by Brother Francesco Patton, Custos of the Holy Land, in the presence of the apostolic delegate to Jerusalem and Palestine, Msgr. Adolfo Tito Yllana, and several Ordinaries of the Holy Land. In his homily, Br. Patton reiterated that "there is no right to the use of violence for religious reasons," condemning "the act of fanaticism and religious hatred" but also "the sowers of hatred" who poison civil coexistence. "Certainly there is a climate that worries me. If those in government act violently, it is clear that those within civil society also feel entitled to act violently."
