Richard Owen in Rome
A Rome priest is fighting for his life after being stabbed in the neck and stomach by a deranged man who had just watched the film The Da Vinci Code on television.
Eyewitnesses said that Marco Luzi, 25, asked to see Father Canio Canistri, 68, parish priest at the church of Santa Marcella in the San Saba district on the Aventine Hill, and then attacked him with a knife hidden in a cloth. An elderly parishioner who came to the priest's aid is also in serious condition.

St Alphonsus Liguori, pray for the us!

“O Jesus! Do not let me be damned. O Lord! Do not send me to hell, because
in hell, I cannot love Thee.”
