Rather, Putin is an enemy of real Christianity.

Anti-Catholic are you?

Anti-Catholic are you?

Indeed, since it is the largest, most manifest example of deformation of the NT church, Care to dispute that as a anti-evangelical?

Meanwhile, even if not engaging in the past Anti-Catholicism in the Soviet Union - Wikipedia, the RCC is discriminated against in Russia with the ROC being the state church, and with the Russia's Ban on Evangelism Is Now in Effect . the secretary of the Russian Conference of Roman Catholic Bishops has expressed that by applying the same standards by which such groups as the JWs (though being a cult) are banned even the Catholic Church in Russia could be discriminated and persecuted.

Of course, your Pope: It's a 'very grave sin' for Catholics to try to convert Orthodox ..., but whom many RCs disagree with, and in the past at least RCs were attacked by the ROC for proselytizing them. /p>

The Yarovaya law at issue exempts the government-allied Moscow Patriarchate of the Russian Orthodox Church from the measures that it applies to all other religious groups. The autonomous Russian Orthodox Church opposed the law; Archbishop Andrew Maklakov, administrator of the Russian Orthodox Autonomous Church of America, stated: "As the Russian Federation has drifted back to its Soviet roots more and more over the past 25 years, it has increasingly sought to harass, persecute, and destroy any religious organization that it might consider competition to its own 'state church.'"[31] - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yarovaya_law#Criticisms_of_anti-evangelism_provisions

While many groups targeted for persecution are not Christian, Putin's War on Christianity Is the Russia Issue That Can't Be Ignored ...
