Careful Peter, as you know there are numerous right-wing zealot groups in the RC Church and they sometimes stoop to means that are rather unpleasant ---- night visits by unknown persons leaving gifts - dead pigs head, firebombs, lengths of rope for hanging etc. And the police will ignore it.

Carl Jung - Aion (1951). CW 9, Part II: P.14
