Obviously, it didn't really get up and walk around on its own but still.........

A church has vanished from the Russian village where it stood for almost 200 years, the local diocese said on Tuesday.

The Church of Christ's Resurrection, in the central Russian village of Komarovo, was built in 1809 but in early October someone took it away brick by brick, Father Vitaly a spokesman for the local Russian Orthodox Church, told Reuters

I admit it, I laughed when I read this... then when I'd finished laughing the thing that crossed my mind was that if it took them that long to notice it'd gone, then it obviously wasn't that important to them anyway!

lol, made me chuckle. It reminded me of the beach that got stolen in Jamaica. One would think these occurences would not be like boiling a frog. Surely someone thought 'Hey, I thought we had two halves of a church/beach, not one' at some stage.
Do not disturb: already disturbed.

I was wondering why anyone would steal an entire church building. Maybe they wanted to set up their own and didn't want to build it from scratch?

Then it said this:

Quote:
Criminals target religious icons stored in churches because they can fetch a good price, and church buildings are dismantled to provide building materials.
Likely some of those bricks will end up in the US, in pricey catalogs and antique stores and such, and finally make their way to people's homes, on their mantels and bookcases.

"Turn out your pockets!"
"Hey mon, I don' know where dat sand-dune come from, me! Maybe it me brodder's!"

(I heard a rumour that the last Great Train Robber got religion and retired to his beach-house...)
