Forgive me for being a skeptical and sarcastic SOB. I can't help wondering if the veneration of the Romanov family, and the resurgence of the Russian Orthodox Church is setting the stage for the coronation of Tsar Vladimir (Putin). In tsarist times, the church was effectively a branch of the state. The church received quite a bit of cash from the Russian treasury, and in return provided legitimacy for the aristocracy, and also acted as a unofficial intelligence arm.

I am reading about the forensic investigation to ID what are suspected to be the bones of the Russian Royals.

I am getting the impression that many Russians regret that part of their history and wish to atone or grieve somehow.

Orthodox Ping!

Save Thy people, O Lord,
and bless Thine inheritance.
Grant victory to Thy Church over her enemies,
and protect Thy people by Thy Holy Cross!
