Satanists in the state of Mizoram, India, are burning Bibles and vandalising churches in a widespread campaign against Christians.

One such group entered a church after midnight on July 24 and burned Bibles, urinated on the pulpit and tore up pictures of the Virgin Mary and Jesus.

"It appears they sacrificed an animal on the pulpit and splattered its blood on the altar and chair of the worship leader," said the Rev. B. Sangthanga, the head pastor of the church in the Kolasib district of the northeastern Indian state.
. . .
Mr. Sangthanga said the acts of vandalism "carry signatures of the Mizo Satan followers. … Now their attack on our church proves that the number of Satanists is growing across the state with village youths joining them."

I'll bet those Christians were deeply offended and responded by demanding an apology, vilifying Satanists in the street, burning a Satanist in effigy, torching a few Satanist places of worship, shooting an elderly Satanist in the back, threatening to kill a bunch more, and generally puttin' the fear of God in 'em.

The villagers did not report the attack to the police, choosing instead to pray for "God's intervention to help the misguided youths return to the right path."

Never mind.
