I find it rather interesting that folks will do the darndest things in order to call attention to what they believe is the most important thing on earth.
These folks are protesting against China’s squelching freedom in Tibet; they climbed the Golden Gate Bridge today and strung a banner across it. Because they have embraced their cause as fundamentally life-changing, they were willing to go to jail simply to make a statement.
I remember something about Jesus followers once being accused of doing the same thing.
