People on FR are generally immune to NWO, UN, demoKKKrat, libtard, greentard, neocon BS and propaganda so long as the discussion involves territory within US borders... It’s a big ******* mystery to me why so many claiming to be conservative start wolfing that sort of kool-ade down the first minute the subject turns to Russia and Vladimir Putin.
Huh?
“The Russian Orthodox Church recently came under criticism for publishing a 2014 calendar in honor of Soviet mass murderer Joseph Stalin. Komov insisted the church was not directly involved in its publication.
However, scholar Keith Armes has observed that the Russian Orthodox Church “survived the collapse of the Communist system” and “is having difficulty maintaining its identity and credibility after seventy years of faithful service to the Communist Party.”
Former KGB officer Konstantin Preobrazhensky has called the church “Putin’s Espionage Church,” and devotes a major portion of his book, KGB/FSB’s New Trojan Horse, to its use by the Russian intelligence service.”
You live in the US. Your knowledge and understand of Putin and his KGB ways I think is limited. The fact that living in the US, your church has certain beliefs and rituals does not mean that it is carried out that way in the Soviet Union (formerly known as Russia).
Do not be deceived. Putin is not a Christian.....He will say and do anything to get his way
