"Killing a priest in a holy place can't be approved."</b>
Something may have been lost in the translation, but there are too many "outs" here for this to be considered condemnation.
Killing a priest ... is it OK to kill anyone else?
Killing in a holy place ... is it OK to kill in a non-holy site?
Can't be approved ... Why not say, "This is wrong."
