Priest hurt in faith-hate attack

A priest has been attacked in the grounds of his church, in what police described as a "faith-hate" crime.

Canon Michael Ainsworth, 57, was injured by two Asian youths at the church, in Tower Hamlets, east London.

Canon Ainsworth said a third youth watched as he suffered cuts, bruises and black eyes in the assault at the church of St George-in-the-East.

The youths also jeered at the priest for being a churchman in the attack on Wednesday night, the Met Police said.

An appeal for witnesses has been made.

Sad .... even if i dont believe in their version of my creation , to harm someone who believes in non-violence is just lame ... hope these pricks feel real big when they meet a real predator !!!! :->::chuck:

Amen, God of Froggs

I'm no fan of men of the cloth, but I can respect their decision to be ruled by a non-existent entity, if that's what they choose. I'm more of a Zen Buddhist myself.

They really need a karmic ass-whooping methinks
