Terrorists for Jesus?

Somewhere in America, two nuns have been placed on terror watch lists for anti-war protest activities. The problem is that the two Roman Catholics did not attend the protests the state police apparently used as justification to add them to the list. The two have spent time in prison for their anti-war activities in the past however. What did they do?

On Oct. 6, 2002, the two sisters and another nun - armed with bolt cutters, a hammer and baby bottles filled with their own blood - broke into an unmanned Minuteman III missile site in northeastern Colorado and painted bloody crosses on the silo. It was the day before the one-year anniversary of the war in Afghanistan.


When was the last time you went to such great lengths for something you believed in?
