If you read the actual Russian text, their protest was an attack on Putin and his minions in the Church. Not attack on God or the Church itself.

Most of the English translations circulating the net have “mistakes” that led people to assume otherwise.

There have been many more “sensible” protests on this matter but their state media sensors all of it.

This act was so provocative and the punishment so harsh that the world can no longer ignore the corruption taking place there.

Then they should have held their protest outside some administrative office, not in the Cathedral. Behavior has consequences.

It is obvious that the members of this punk band did not weigh the possible outcome of their actions. I wish that the members of Act Up and Wham who committed lewd acts in Cathedrals in the US would have gotten similar punishments.

They had a mighty funny way of showing that.
