Andrew Sullivan thinks McCain stole this story from Solzhenitsen in his Gulag days. When the Christan's could not draw the sign of the cross they drew the fish instead. It was a way of letting other Christan's know they believed in Jesus. I have a firm belief in Christ that John McCain's not making this story up. Those who are prosecuted on their faith have drawn a symbol to show unity and belief in a higher authority.
