Bad. Shouldn’t do things like this. Bad. Not Funny.
Ok, maybe a little funny.
I can see the comments now. “Patrick, are you advocating violence and vandalism?”
As a general rule, no.
It is a long drive from Kalispell, Montana to Denver. 690 miles to be exact. That is a lot of time in the car to think about the reason for your trip. If you are going to get in your car to to drive 690 miles, you better have a good reason for your trip. Kathleen Lorie Folden thought she had one.
Kathleen heard of an “art” exhibit in Denver. This piece of … ummm…”art” depicted Jesus engaged in a homosexual act. Kathleen thought to herself (I am mind paraphrasing here) “Oh no you didn’t. Not on my watch honey.”
So she put on her “tougher than nails” t-shirt and got in her truck. (I love that image) She drove the 690 miles to see the exhibit. She obtained her own art instruments, in this case a crowbar, and entered…

Perhaps she can get a government grant. 🙂

Turn the other cheek indeed, what a lovely image and representation of her christ.
If you can't stand the art, don't look at it. Nobody is forcing you to see it.
Furthermore, Jesus' crew was twelve sailors and no women, what are we supposed to suspect hmm?

There are times when you do what's right even if it isn't legal. When you're caught, "man up", admit your guilt and await the punishment. If you're going to do the crime, be prepared to do the time. Just make sure your conscience is clear and you've no regrets.
I wonder if more of us will soon be presented similar opportunities as our culture continues it's swirl down the bowl?

You might do a little legitimate research on the apostles and disciples of Jesus. You cannot reference your last statement.

I'd like to ask the 'artist' why he didn't use Mohammed as his subject. Of course, I already know the answer to that one.

Loki – you're sick!
Nope, I totally agree with what she did. She committed no violence against anyone, and if the artist felt slapped, then maybe he will have the humility to seek confession for this terrible blasphemy against our Lord.
Whoever this woman was: You GO Girl!
