Revolution by Helping, Not Hurting

While in prison, Shane Paul O’Doherty learned of another revolutionary, Jesus. Now, Shane speaks of how Jesus was prepared to suffer, more than to use violence. Jesus loved and helped them. He didn’t hurt them. He only used peaceful means to change things. (paraphrased). Shane wants to follow Jesus’ example. At fifteen, Shane had joined a paramilitary group, the Irish Republican Army, IRA, during Northern Ireland’s troubles. He went to prison for bombing. Shane is pictured above.
