There’s hope for this country down the road.
We may go the route of the USSR before that, unfortunately, but who would have thought they’d turn around like they have.
Problem is, much damage has been done to their culture and society in the meantime.
This is not as extraordinary as it sounds. Russia has been a Christian nation for a very long time, and it takes Christianity seriously.

“In the 10th century the ruler of Kievan Rus, Prince Vladimir, chose Orthodox Christianity over the other religions of that time. In the years 988-991 AD mass Orthodox baptisms took place in Kiev; Grand Prince Vladimir made Orthodox Christianity the national religion of Rus – it remained so until 1917. Since the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991 the Orthodox Church has resumed its position as the main religion of the nation.”
Thank you Putin. You are a better leader than ours.
Ours doesn’t care about Christians or Jews. He does care a lot about the middle eastern cult that is trying to wipe out Christians and Jews.

I’m liking Putin more and more these days.
It’s nice to see a world leader like Putin unabashedly standing up for his faith, his convictions, and defending his nations values. That’s a rare thing today, in a world of narcissistic and self-serving heads of state. I’m also glad he has the balls to not allow his country to be bullied by the loser we ended up with.
