On Sunday, a Belgian priest was stabbed in his own home after refusing to give a Muslim asylum seeker money. “Father Jos Vanderlee, a 65-year-old priest in the north east Belgian town of Lanaken, was rushed to hospital with hand and tendon injuries,” reports The Telegraph. “He is expected to make a full recovery.

It wasn’t as if the priest turned the Muslim migrant away entirely. When the asylum seeker showed up at his doorstep, Father Vanderlee generously allowed the man inside his home and let him take a shower, the Muslim man decided to take full advantage of his charitable host, asking the priest for money. The priest refused and it was then that the asylum seeker began stabbing the the 65-year-old priest without mercy.
