Jim.. 3 strike Out........... Trio of Thieves Ex-Communicated BOGOTA (Reuters) - Swift justice was meted out for a trio of thieves who stole from a Roman Catholic church during Mass in Colombia, authorities say. Church officials said the three, who held worshipers at bay with pistols Sunday as they robbed the gold-plated crown off a statue of the Virgin of Fatima, were still at large. But they were ``automatically'' cut off from communion or future membership in the church. ``The church is the Mother and it does not punish,'' Father Octavio Martinez, the parish priest in the southwest city of Cali where the robbery occurred, said Monday. ``But these three were automatically ex-communicated for their criminal act,'' he said. Martinez said the crown from the statue on the altar of his La Cayetana church was practically worthless in terms of the gold it contained. But he added that ``the spiritual value is immense'' and said it was purloined precisely at the moment when his parishioners were praying for peace in their war-ravaged homeland. Colombia, dubbed the country of the Sacred Heart in colonial times, is a predominantly Roman Catholic nation. But blasphemy appeared to reach new levels in Cali in May, 1999, when Cuban-inspired National Liberation Army rebels kidnapped about 160 people from the city's La Maria church. In that case too, Roman Catholic clergymen said the culprits had been ex-communicated.
