Sun Yat-sen Destroyed an Idol and Had to Flee
yudashkai
Below is an excerpt from Yu-kai Chou's book, "10,000 Hours of Play":
"To everyone's surprise, once Sun was back in his old village, alongside his childhood ally Lu Haodong, he went into his local village's temple and destroyed the worshiped idol, believing they were harmful superstitions that held the village back."
After being sent back to China by his brother (who was furious about his Christian conversion), Sun Yat-sen did something audacious. Alongside his childhood ally Lu Haodong, he walked into his village's temple and destroyed the worshiped idol, believing these superstitions held the village back. The villagers were so enraged that Sun's father had to arrange for him to escape to Hong Kong. This bold act foreshadowed the revolutionary spirit that would one day topple an empire.
