America’s favorite moneypot is back, just in time for our American leaders’ favorite pleasure: persecuting devout Christians on the basis of their faith. Yesterday, President Zelensky of Ukraine announced Draft Law 8821, which will make the Ukrainian Orthodox Church illegal throughout the country. The law, if passed, will also allow the Ukrainian government the ability to confiscate all church property and outlaw both public and private practice of the religion.

You Bidenistas are totalitarian creeps. You will be all in for banning Christianity here in America. Disgusting. How do you live with yourself?
Let's go Zelensky!!

“The law, if passed, will also allow the Ukrainian government the ability to confiscate all church property and outlaw both public and private practice of the religion.”
A ‘Progressive’ dream come true. Times ‘Man of the Year’? Now you know why. Where’s George W Bush on his Winston Churchill buddy?
“Misleading headline. There are two major Orthodox denominations in Ukraine.
Ok, so he’s just banning Russian language services. Sounds good to me. So just ethnic cleansing, sounds like a plan!
In that part of the world, that’s the same as outlawing Christianity.
No, he isn’t “banning Russian language services”. He’s moving against a church that is owned and controlled by the government of the nation invading his.
name calling gets you no where
Thank you. I think the headline is deliberately misleading and inflammatory.
GET IT RIGHT.... RUSSIAN AFFILIATED CHURCHES and ONLY RUSSIAN AFFILIATED CHURCHES PUSHING/SUPPORTING A RUSSIAN AGENDA. ONLY THOSE ARE TARGETED... AS THE SHOULD BE!
And people thought Z was a good guy. Media just puts him on a pedestal, just look at Time.
This article is garbage and a complete lie.
The Russian Orthodox Church in Ukraine also got caught spying and providing FSB and GRU with military targeting information.
It's disgraceful anyone here or any Christian or conservative would support this tyrant and his "liberal world order" puppet masters pulling his strings.

tell that to the Putin trolls here
I call them like I see them. If someone espouses totalitarian idieology then they are a totalitarian. Freedom of religion has s a human right.

OFGS! Quit with the hyperbole. He is not outlawing Orthodox Christianity, he is closing down ONE of its many branches; specifically, the RUSSIAN Orthodox Church, which is basically an arm of the Russian government. Ukraine is at war with Russia, after all.
the issue is not about “freedom of religion”, Ukrainians can believe what they wish, the operations of religious institutions is a different manner, and the Russian Orthodox Church in Ukraine - the institution - has proven to be a divisive stooge of Putin, and worse
Orthodox Christians in Ukraine still have Orthodox Churches they can take their faith practice to, and they know it even if you don’t.
