[Sheree Bobbins]

This is unbecoming behaviour of a monk!

I didnt know there were "Rival Monks"

This is a regular event at the Church of the Holy Sepulcher.

In the name of someone they view as the Prince of Peace, Christians of different sects are willing to pummel (or much worse) one another. Never mind that the differences which separate them are nothing compared to what unites them. They seem all too willing to throw all that away.

maybe they were trying to decide, once and for all, which is the one true path/faith.... last man standing seals the deal.

If anyone is familiar with this church, this is not a surprise. It is a highly contentious site among sects.
