Wasn't Russia the country where thieves stole a bridge? The criminals there have gotten to be pretty good, eh?

Original article is here.

Thieves steal church
A church has vanished from the Russian village where it stood for almost 200 years.

The Church of Christ's Resurrection, in the central Russian village of Komarovo, was built in 1809 but in early October someone reportedly took it away brick by brick.

Father Vitaly a spokesman for the local Russian Orthodox Church, said: "We have sent a letter to local prosecutors. Who exactly did this, the investigation will show."

The church was in an isolated area only occasionally visited by clergymen, so the disappearance was not immediately noticed, reports the Daily Telegraph.

Maybe they were trying to play Jenga, but when they lost they just took the whole thing away O:

SK, that would be so cruel, I love it! XD

I was gonna say maybe God had enough of their self-righteous bullshit and got rid of the damn building? But no, if God did that, the Vatican would be the first to vanish.

Ra,

Think about it though O:

Leave little notes on each one of the bricks giving a clue to the next one.
Maybe stick a brick in people's mail boxes for them to look too.
We could get the whole country in on this!

I know who it is! It's those evil people from Ukraine Dating.com!

I have a better Idea,
When they get the bricks back,

Instead of re-building the church they can sell the bricks to tourists as 'VERY' limited edition Souvenirs! And they can have their name engraved in it and it'll sell for $45!!!

Or whatever the currency is in Russia.
