“Russians are returning to Christianity in a modern and contemporary context”
“They are familiar with the bitter fruit of atheism and have no appetite for the bleak and barren wasteland it produced”
“in Russia, Christianity is associated with being modern and progressive”
“the young, the hip, the wise and the wealthy, express their Christianity as a completely natural and straightforward thing”
“Today, the spirit of communism shows itself in western worship of human rights, freedom of speech and the elite’s utopian notions of so-called open societies. We are headed for the very wasteland that the Russians were relieved to leave behind.”
“Russians perceive activists like Pussy Riot as latter-day Bolsheviks”This is actually quite funny. The liberal West is all in an uproar over Russia going (Orthodox) Christian. Excepting the benighted souls that believe that Russia is still atheistic and Communist.
