[fender62]

why would anyone want to do this, obviously used a sledgehammer meaning they thought about it and carried a sledge there, but why.

Is that the best use of scarce resources though? It's hard enough getting them to attend burglaries if stories are true.

[fender62]

i wonder if it was religiously motivated...

//The church and the Police were very slow to react. Surely they should have been keeping an eye on the place after the first attack.//

Why? a normal act of vandalism is done once, then they move on.

This was deliberate and sustained and they clearly pitched up ready for the act. This is clearly not your normal yob vandal.

Being Croydon there is a strong chance of it being gang related or religious. Has the Church been grassing up local villains or preaching the 'failures' of other faiths or something?

Nah, be more law and order if they did. Croydon along with a large percentage of inner London has fallen.
