"Nantes, France: Cathedral of St Peter and St Paul (Saint-Pierre-et-Saint-Paul)
"Begun in 1434, the Roman Catholic structure was built over hundreds of years – and finished in 1891. Fortunately, it wasn’t as badly damaged as Notre Dame. But its grand organ, stained glass windows and other items were destroyed. A 39 year old Rwandan migrant was detained over the fire, but French officials have cautioned against blaming him for the arson. They are not yet certain he is the actual suspect." . . .

American Catholic churches
"In the United States, at least 11 Catholic churches have been vandalized, burned, or otherwise desecrated. This last week, St Joseph’s church in New Haven, Connecticut was vandalized with “satanic and anarchist symbols” written in pink paint.

"St Joseph’s wrote on Facebook July 17 (excerpt),
“Between the hours of 9 PM last night and 6 AM this morning, a person or group of persons had painted anarchist and satanic symbols on the doors of St. Joseph Church in New Haven. This follows an apparent trend of desecrating Catholic spaces throughout the nation, as evidenced by incidents in Chattanooga, Queens, Boston, Sacramento, and Ocala. The underlying motive of these sacrilegious attacks is clear: to intimidate and instill fear in the hearts of those who worship Christ. However, our cherished Catholic faith has survived for 2,000 years in the faces of many different oppressors, and it is not about to yield now. Therefore, we remain unafraid and resolute in our faith, and we will pray for a conversion of the hearts of those who wish to terrorize us.”

"The National Organization of Women (NOW) has compiled a list of what they’re calling the “Dirty 100” — organizations who have filed suit against the HHS Contraception Mandate. One of the “Dirty 100” organizations that NOW claims is simply “using religion” to discriminate against women, is, in fact, a group of Catholic religious sisters called the Little Sisters of the Poor.
"The Little Sisters of the Poor take vows to tend to the needs of the elderly poor. They are opposed to providing contraception to their employees as contraception violates the teachings of the Roman Catholic Church. The Little Sisters of the Poor are not considered to be a “religious employer” and exempt from the mandate as they employ and care for people of all faith backgrounds." . . .
