AFP - Polish police detained a 58-year-old man Sunday after he threw vials of black paint at the Black Madonna of Czestochowa, an ancient Catholic icon of the Virgin Mary believed to work miracles.
A protective pane of glass over the painted protected it from any damage, local police spokeswoman Joanna Lazar told reporters.

The detained man had been questioned and was expected to undergo a psychiatric evaluation, Lazar said. His name has not been released. - Finish reading here.

    Sigh of relief.

    But the act itself - by the poor man who did it - is worse.

  2. A little old vial of paint was going to hurt her? She survived fire, theft and a sword.

    This is a terrorist attack against directly aimed at God, an entire Nation, it's history, and the very core of their faith. I can't help to wonder what his motivation was...

    I pray that Mary & Jesus will reach out to his broken spirit & troubled soul....
