Orthodox Christians have a strong sense of the rightness of their faith as Solzhenitsyn revealed in his writing.
The prophet in him warned the West about its decline.
I won’t say Putin is a saint.
Not everything is right in Russia but Russia did give us Aleksandr I. Solzhenitsyn and his words ring truer than ever in these times.
Ain't that the truth? And my respect for Solzhenitsyn was only intensified when he left what was an easy and pleasant life in Vermont to go back and help shape a newly free Russia. Truly, he was one of the great moral writers of our time, very much on par with the likes of C.S. Lewis.
