The ACLU would scream "separation of church and state" if that was proposed here. Russia is rediscovering its Christian heritage.

With the large Muslim population in Russia, I would recommend the Orthodox, Catholics, Protestants, Jews and any other non-Islamic faiths become "best buddies."

Actually this has been in the works for a long time. My wife was a child psychologist in Volgograd and prior to our marriage in 2001 she helped develop an optional Bible curriculum, which was passed by the Duma, and signed into law by Putin. The Bible can be used in Russian schools at the option of the teacher and superintendent.

Sounds great to me! Orthodoxy shaped much of Russian culture and the inculcation of Orthodox Christian values will strengthen the Russian people for the battle ahead with the Mohammedans.

I think it is a wonderful thing that Russia is teaching Christianity in the schools.
Perhaps others will lose focus of how great this is or find ways to drag the discussion here off on some negative tangent. Can't we keep focus for once on a tidbit of good news and celebrate it? There will lots of times and places to discuss the other things.

Sweet! Mandatory Orthodox Jewish religious instruction to all Russian children.
Dang shame that we don't require the same here in the States.
