Putin said last Friday, "The Russian Orthodox Church together with the Russian Orthodox Church Abroad are on a very special mission in Russia and across the world." A "special mission" in the West means KGB, nuclear strikes or Cold War. In reality, last February 1st, Putin met with the Church in this video to say:
(Link to Video at this point)
It 's certain as the sun rises that Friday's meeting between Russian Christians leaders and Putin will be ignored by the Western media. Putin has real world power, which causes the liberal media to fearfully ignore or warp his image. Meanwhile, like a good Christian King, President Vladimir Putin leads a nation to Christ.
The West however, prefers to herald perverted girls that defile churches in Russia. The same church destroyed by Communists and rebuilt by the Russian faithful. The West proclaims how terrible Putin is and how he jailed poor little girls in a band who were just singing in church. Even the conservative media, supposedly Christian, ignores the Russian church and men like Putin who helped it. Propaganda they say. Propaganda we say when the West warps or ignores the truth of a church Christ Himself saved.
It was not long ago when Communism soaked the land of Russia with blood and destroyed churches in its quest to bring happiness to mankind. Now the Russian Orthodox Church is strong and getting stronger thanks to men in government like President Vladimir Putin. Does America know how this happened and why their media still portrays it as the same evil Soviet Union?

He doesn't seem to be a ringer or an old style Pravda Communist America basher.
Anyway this is interesting, Christians and Orthodox Christians may find this interesting, as well.
I recall reading an article by a defector from over there who stated that the Russian Orthodox Church was still run by “former” KGB priests.
It was the KGB, fyi, that dreamed up the idea of Liberation Theology and used their resources and agents to spread it.
The Russkies today simply use their religion for nationalistic purposes. He is no ‘Christian King,’ and he has plenty of blood on his hands, and plenty more to spill.
Our governments may be at loggerheads and Putin may be a thug but when our progressive government is done with the freedom loving people in this country we may be envious of Russia.
The Russian Orthodox Church isn’t known as “Christianity’s dark side” for nothing. Catholic and Evangelical missionaries in Russia are treated worse than muzzies.
It’s very far from obvious to me at least that Russia needs missionaries of any sort. They are building two hundred new Christian churches in and around Moscow and they have totally rebuilt the magnificent Cathedral of Christ the Savior. Between Russia and the U.S. right now it seems obvious enough as to which is the Christian nation, and it ain’t us.
Kirill, Putin both billionaires and ex-KGB.
Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!

There are no high Russian public officials of Putin's age that did not start out as a Communist Party member working for a preferred Soviet bureaucracy.

Indeed it was, and Obama is a bedrock believer of Wright's "Chickens home to Roost" gospel by free choice.
The Russkies today simply use their religion for nationalistic purposes.
And they should use their national religion for Islamic Caliphate purposes?
Think about this: The Progressive Americans today simply use their religion for socialistic purposes.
He is no ‘Christian King,’
That is certainly true.
...and he has plenty of blood on his hands, and plenty more to spill.
That is also true, and could be said of Vlad III, Prince of Wallachia, or King Jan III of Poland, as well.
Soros, Feinstein, Pelosi, Clinton, Kerry, Reid, Warner,Kennedy, Gore, Harmon, Obama, all billionaires/millionaires and currently Marxist DemoRats.
“There are no high Russian public officials of Putin’s age that did not start out as a Communist Party member working for a preferred Soviet bureaucracy.”
Indeed, the criminals merely rebranded themselves. Putin wasn’t some bureaucrat though. He has dirty hands.
“And they should use their national religion for Islamic Caliphate purposes?”
You should do some reading on Alexandr Dugin, one of Putin’s mentors and a big promoter of the Russian Orthodox. He talks extermination of the West like it was nothing. Is that closer to Christianity or Islamic Caliphate? You can’t take at face value what the Russians do, even their approved religious leaders, especially when we know they’re more KGB than anything else.
Can you tell me where the Russian Orthodox Church has condemned Putin for those thrown from windows or beaten up in dark alleys for asking the wrong questions or doing the wrong things?
“That is also true, and could be said of Vlad III, Prince of Wallachia, or King Jan III of Poland, as well.”
Communists and their former servants can’t really be compared to those guys. Even the Impaler Prince was an underperformer compared to the Soviets.
Sort of like the American Communists rebranded themselves "Environmentalists"?
And Leftist DemoRats don't have dirty hands? Or want to put Conservatives and Baptist Christians in concentration camps?
It would be more wise to try and figure out what's going on in Russia, rather than assuming that it must be worse than the Rat Obamination because it's Putin.
“It would be more wise to try and figure out what’s going on in Russia, rather than assuming that it must be worse than the Rat Obamination because it’s Putin.”
Obama is worse in that he wants to disarm our nukes, which would probably be followed up by a nuclear strike by Putin and the Chicoms.
Well he certainly has a lot of Chechen muzzie blood on his hands.
