The President of Pakistan has condemned the burning down of a Lutheran сhurch and called for the protection of Christians in the country.
Pakistani President Asif Ali
Zardari also condemned the destruction of a school and offices in the
city Mardan and urged local authorities to protect Christians.
According
to the president: "The destruction of property, especially the places
of worship of other religions, is contrary to Islam and should be
condemned."
After Friday prayers Pakistani protesters angered by the film "The Innocence of Muslims" broke into the Anglican Church of St. Paul.
They destroyed the altar, tore up Bibles and then set fire to the building.
The
protesters then broke into a school, a library, an information center
and the homes of two priests and a school teacher, where they destroyed
everything in sight and wrote "Allah Akbar” on the walls. (source)
