No thanks to you and the criminal organization you once served, that actively undermined and subverted Christian institutions for the last 80 years. Do a mea culpa for your beloved CCCP and its Cheka/OGPU/GPU/NKVD/MGB/KGB gang of thugs that was responsible for mass murder on an industrial scale for decades, and maybe then we could talk ...

That orthodox Christianity is not the type we know here very well, but there has been an aggressive effort to rebuild, restore, and turn over to the Russian church numerous grand old churches that were dynamited, turned into barns, offices, etc back in the old days.
They displayed an air droppable Orthodox chapel for their paratroopers. All Russian navy ships are required to have an orthodox chapel aboard. They made it illegal to propagandize to kids that homosexuality is normal.
They’ve been doing a lot of mea culpa if you are watching. And they correctly see the USA as spreading militant homosexuality and official atheism that is aggressively rooting out Christianity everywhere it can be found. Hell, we even built a wiccan pagan monument at the air force academy.
As I said, Christianity is different than you’ll find here, but they are on the right path, and we are on the wrong (hopefully reversed by Trump soon). If we play that childish game that they can never warn anyone about not following their past, we are essentially deciding that they will always be a permanent enemy.
When any of our “allies do 1/10th of what they have done to reverse course, ill maybe listen. Saudi Arabia, the Gulf States? The EU? The UK?
