Demons Still On Loose In Buxco

The Inquirer gives us more today on the Satanic cult vandalizing churches in Bucks County.

Cops arrested one woman, according to the Inky's Larry King, but are on the lookout for, uh, demons. 40-year-old Sandralee Banks-Kastrup was arrested for vandalizing St. Michael the Archangel church, but cops want to round up more demons to burn at the stake or try for vandalism or whatever. No names, though:

In recalling his encounter with the purported "demons," [St. Mike's Pastor Fr. Michael] DiIorio said that it was not threatening, but that it came back to mind during the recent desecrations. "There was nothing remarkable in their dress or demeanor," DiIorio recalled. "I greet every person in church after the liturgy at the main door. They made themselves last in line."

When the two visitors reached him, he said, they told him that they wanted him to know "that they had moved into the area and that now they will be here." When DiIorio asked if they wanted to register with the parish, "they had no intention of doing so." Instead, he said, "they described themselves by names of demons. They didn't say 'Cheryl' or 'Samantha.' It was a demonic name."

DiIorio said police had told him not to provide further details, including the sex of the visitors. He did say one "would have been in her early 50s," while the second was younger. "They didn't use the generic term demon. We're using that to guard against evidence being contaminated," DiIorio said. "But they used a name that anyone would associate with demons."

Why, exactly, do the demons' names have to be confidential? What if I know them? I know a couple of demons, and I'm hoping they weren't involved. For instance, I've already cleared my demon friend Samantha.

Oh, yeah, and Archdiocese spokeswoman Donna Farrell said she didn't know of any link between the demonic visitors and the vandalism. Satan sells, I guess.

Elmer's Glue Vandalizes NE Philly Churches

112007churchvandals.jpg
Up in Northeast Philly, a bunch of churches were vandalized by somebody (probably punk kid atheists) putting glue on the locks.

Somebody went up and down Tyson Avenue in Tacony/Mayfair, gluing the locks and breaking keys off in the doors of eight churches. How many churches are there in this town? I feel like there's one for every resident. Anyway, guess who apparently got left alone: Catholic churches. Yeah, somebody managed to vandalize eight churches in Mayfair and not hit one Catholic church. That has to be intentional.

Here's the head of the Tacony Baptist Church: "It’s really comical. They keyed that door and instead of jumping up and down smoking, I just thank God, because the devil is trying to tell us we are doing something right for the Lord."

Hey, turning the other cheek? I thought Christians weren't in to that anymore. Anyway, the best part of this story is definitely the graphic KYW 1060 came up with. Did they really use Elmer's glue? Or am I just supposed to work a Barbaro joke in here?
