I’m sick of it being the cause du jour with everyone; the entire world is on the verge of flames and this is the biggest issue in the West.

LOL! That may be the reason for him to avoid certain embraces.

Putin and the KGB/(Oprichni Secret Police of the Russian Orthodox Church) have succeeded in the the strategic demoralization of their enemy.

Duh. Of course he’s not going to embrace the cancerous demoralization of his own oligarchic culture.

Num 12:5-9
Then the Lord came down in a pillar of cloud; he stood at the entrance to the Tent and summoned Aaron and Miriam. When both of them stepped forward, 6 he said, “Listen to my words:

“When a prophet of the Lord is among you,

7 But this is not true of my servant Moses;
he is faithful in all my house.
8 With him I speak face to face,
clearly and not in riddles;
he sees the form of the Lord.
Why then were you not afraid
to speak against my servant Moses?”

9 The anger of the Lord burned against them, and he left them.
NIV
