According to another report I read on his death, the letter he signed in 2007 to Putin objected to the introduction of religious instruction in the public schools. That was news to me--I had no idea they had religious instruction in the public schools over there. Of course, the mere fact Vitalii Ginzburg even existed was also news to me.
