In Buxerolles, an anticlerical message was tagged on the parish church Saint-Jacques des Hauts-de-Poitiers. The tag reads "The only church that illuminates is the one that burns." Residents informed the police.
Julien Dupont, the parish priest, said: "In the period we're in, there's a lot of violence and I'm not sure that this is conducive to living together," he explains. I don't think this kind of hate tag helps us take care of each other." Meanwhile, the parish priest, who calls for appeasement of the Christian community, says he is "available for dialogue".
