Church Burglary Suspect Maybe Had Good Intentions?

He reportedly told cops, "I am angry at the church for molesting children. That's why I started going after churches. I don't case them out, I just walk by and get angry." He also said that the child molestation scandals are the latest thing to make him question the existence of God, following his mother's murder and his childhood in foster care. However, one friend said, "He never said anything about the Catholic Church. He was robbing from the poor. That's despicable."
