From the article: Hilarion’s career has not been without controversy. At a 2010 lecture to Anglican clergy and faithful, he is famous for shocking them with his denunciation of their community’s departure from traditional Christian teachings.

He has been tireless in his defense of traditional Christian values, and in this effort he has shocked some western sensibilities, denouncing in very strong terms the ideology of the LGBT movement.

It is amazing how plain truth passes for "controversy" today. I never thought I'd live to see religious truth proclaimed in Russia and denied in the West. I wouldn't believe the former if it weren't for the starkly contrasting latter. I didn't believe our decline would be this rapid.

You are not alone, by any means.

Prostitution, porn, abortion, alcoholism, drugs... there’s much more of social pathology in Russia than in the west, on “gays” they are right just like majority of the world but they way they use it is to mock the west because that’s what KGB in charge is requesting.
