"Too bad it seems to be dying in this Republic."

Yes, what irony! As atheistic Europe and America slide into the hellhole of decadence, the rest of the world follows the promise of Christ toward heaven.

Remember when America was Christian and Russia was atheist?

Please live in today’s Russia for a bit. Christianity is on display, but it has not overcome its Soviet Past (as even Christians continue to struggle with how to frame the Soviet narrative. Denouncing the so called “evils” of the past outright would mean compromising on patriotism.)

Lenin’s body is still in full display at Red Square. Busts of Stalin are back en vogue.

In terms of combatting social ills such as Soviet/post-Soviet abortion culture, divorce, alcoholism, and domestic violence - there is still a long way to go...and indeed, the HIV epidemic in Russia is at a tipping point.

Don’t forget that Iran and the Kremlin are also very close allies.

Revival is happening in Western Europe including among Muslim refugees and let’s not dismiss the magnitude of Trump’s victory in the states.

I also predict protests in China in the coming years.
