The Russian State Duma and Federation Council approved a number of constitutional amendments yesterday, March 11. The foundational legal document now speaks of the importance of Russia’s historical faith in God and enshrines traditional marriage and family values.

As IA-Regnum reports, regarding faith in God, the constitution now reads:

The Russian Federation, united by a thousand-year history, preserving the memory of our ancestors who passed on ideals and faith in God to us, as well as continuity in the development of the Russian state, recognizes the historically established state unity.

Legislators also adopted an amendment that stipulates that marriage is a union between a man and a woman, effectively banning gay marriages, reports macaubusiness.com.

Patriarch Kirill proposed adding a reference to God to the constitution last month, stating: ““The majority of Russian citizens believe in God. I’m not only talking about the Orthodox—I’m also talking about Muslims and many others.”

This may be why the DemocRats hate and fear Russia so much.

A crazy world this is to have to look to Russia for obvious moral values.

I am old enough to remember the 1950's and early 60's when we Catholic schoolchildren would pray a rosary every day for the Conversion of Russia.

Good Lord, the power of prayer!

Now let's get busy on the Conversion of America.

I’m not only talking about the Orthodox—I’m also talking about Muslims and many others.”.............................Before making a statement like that, one had better read what the Bible says about what constitutes belief in God.
