Un-Orthodox Theft in Russia

Russian thieves nick an entire church. Quite the effort.

A 200-year-old church building has disappeared from a village in central Russia, officials from the Russian Orthodox Church say.

The building had stood near the village of Komarovo since 1809.

It was intact in July but some time in early October thieves made off with it brick by brick, they said.

Thoughts?

I hate how some of my friends get stolen by the Church over here and come back all squeaky clean and changed. But in soviet Russia, Church gets stolen by YOU!

Sorry...

How'd they get a whole church? If the authorities and locals are so stupid they didn't notice they kind of deserve to be robbed blind...
