That comes across to me as self-defense panic -- for having had a totalitarian streak that you possess, outed.
And this, goes too far (to be aimed at a freeper whom I'd bet you scarcely know);
Specially when it was followed by this;
Using Israel as example, reaching for fullest justification for whatv the Russians have been busy doing in regards to most nay faith tradition that could present competition with the Russian Orthodox Church does not work very well from among Judeo-Christian perspective.
Abraham was promised the land, by God, with part of that plan being that the land from the river to the sea would be his progeny's home. Is there any other nation that can justifiably lay the same kind of claim? My 2 cents towards that issue, for whatever it's truly worth (more, or less, depending upon how somebody, anybody ---has likely already made up their own mind).
I'm the kind that will pick up stacks of Watchtower and circular file the junk -- yet I'm at a loss to think of/remember when JW's were ever all that destructive. Not physically so, and even not all that much religiously so.
It's not hard work to proselytize JW's to lean more towards Christ, towards how Christ is known (better, I'd say) in a variety of religious locales, outside of the JW's. Many who have gone through that perhaps 'a little bit more than half-bubble off plumb' way of framing understanding of Godly things, if treated decently enough by Christians who are not JW's, end up eventually leaving that assembly (the JW's) and not then being entirely lost in the wilderness of giving up placing any faith in God through Jesus Christ, at all.
Would you prefer then to become hard-core vodka drinkers? A guy could do that and still be accepted as Russian Orthodox?
Christ, in fact, is the heir of Israel's promises, as is made clear by Paul. That is why Christians are called the sons of Abraham, and why Christ is consistently identified with Israel, even called the "Israel of God," or even living a life that mirrors the historical path of Israel (Exodus, 40 days/years in the wilderness, etc.).
The Jews of today are largely anti-Christian and, consequently, as all unbelievers are, are identified as "anti-Christs" who are already condemned due to their unbelief, but add on to their judgment with attitudes, beliefs and policies that are overtly hostile to Christianity.
Mind you, lots of Evangelicaldom views this differently, but only because of their ignorance of Covenant theology, explicit teaching of scripture, and Christ's symbology.
Whatever the case, there is no reason to suppose that Israel is the only country allowed to have a "totalitarian streak," considering that for most of western history we have lived under monarchies with various degrees of "totalitarian" control. But we still produced Shakespeare, philosophy, and much beautiful and worthy values and culture.
What I'm saying is that there is no moral superiority of Democracy over any other form of government, except perhaps that Democracy has a nasty tendency of falling to pieces the moment "righteous men" no longer dominate, exactly as the founding fathers warned. Having a "totalitarian streak" is probably a normal, common sense reaction to realizing that the American experiment is on the verge of a second civil war.
As for JWs in general, they're a religious cult that uses psychological and emotional means to destroy families and control people. Of course, I'm sure the Russians are going after them for purely cynical reasons--the Orthodox Church does not exactly attract very many people who are more zealous than your average, nominal Papist. Hence the low church attendance rate but very high membership rate. People who go into a cult like the JWs are hardcore, and they might fill a vacuum of zealotry that is otherwise not being fulfilled by others.
On the other hand, the JWs are genuinely a menace, albeit not a violent one, but they should ban the Mormons too, and Oneness Pentecostals, all non-Trinitarians, and, of course, the Muslims, if we're going to be consistent. Otherwise it just comes off as cynical and insincere.
