Pianist, Pavel Kushner, 39, dies in Russian pre-trial detention.

The musician and an anti-war activist was on a hunger strike and “his body couldn’t handle it,” his friend says.

Kushner had “incited terrorism,” by reading poems, against Putin, in a YouTube channel with 5 followers.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

True, that.

The people who heard this line on SNL in '75 probably aren't, though.
