VANCOUVER, British Columbia - Mary Braun, an 81-year-old mem-
ber of the Christian Sect Sons of Freedom, was found guilty
last week of setting fire to a community college. Braun has
a history of using arson and public nudity as part of reli-
gious protests. The fire at the community college was intended
as a "symbolic gesture" that apparently got out of hand. Dur-
ing her two-day trial, Braun refused to wear clothes and
showed little emotion. Provincial Court Judge Mark McEwan ruled
that there was no doubt the defendant was guilty, and she will
be sentenced in November. Braun is one of the last members of
this Russian Christian group. The sect believes in pacifism
and total equality. Don't ask how arson could be considered a
pacifistic act…
