Again, only 7% even attend once a month, and you are issuing false and irresponsible calumny against real Christians who face persecution in Russia. Although it is true Russia also bans certain churches we recognize as cults (Jehovah's Witnesses), on that front I would also add that it is utterly unAmerican and against fundamental liberty for the State to decide what brand of religion is the correct one, and that by force and persecution.
“Biblical” is not the sole authentic standard for Christian faith.
mssr. putin knows his days areless numerous, ergo, his attempts at regaining Russian greatness post-the-wall years.he has been orchestrating a state orthodoxy, with whispers of other churches disappearing. again, more greatness.
a man, who under the soviet system, was not rich, but could acquire ‘some things’. since then, he has found means to gather money, a name, and power.
saving russia from globalism? no. putting russia on thre map, yes. russia saving the world from globalism? no.
saving the world for russia, yes.
expect a whirlwind inside the kremlin on the passing of mssr. putin.
watch and see who mssr. putin has kept a boot on his neck, to be his successor.
Watching with interest.

Religion is regarded as True by the masses
False by the intellectuals
and Useful by the rulers

It most certainly is. But this doesn't matter since in this context since, as I said, the super majority of Russians aren't believers in orthodoxy anyway despite it being the near universal nominal religion for them.
If you'd like to debate why the Bible isn't the sole authentic standard of truth for what is or isn't Christian, start a thread on it, and you will be torn to pieces by the very learned Christians we have on this forum. I myself might join in on the dogpile, though I do most of my Christian debate on other forums these days.
No, the conflict between Russia and the globalist west is more of a case where mixtures of good and evil confront one another, neither is that close to the Kingdom ideal. If we get to the Kingdom it will not be through any victory of an earthly power but through the sovereignty of Jesus Christ over all the kings of the earth. This is the scenario outlined in prophecy, what we may now be seeing is the fight between the “beast” and the “whore of Babylon” both of which are subdued in the end times by the armies of Christ.
I do not see any worldly powers that resemble the “armies of Christ” only individuals who seem to meet that standard. Their actions at this time are not military but political and social. How, if at all, this evolves into a military conflict is not very clear. It suggests that the process towards the Kingdom may be more in the spiritual than the military realm.

Your Thorazine drip came loose.
It will make some states Pro-Life. Many states will not be.
OR you could, just, look at Ukraine over the past 8 years and find proof of the "fascist coup government" killing innocent people in the streets.
As this has never happened, you will never find any evidence for it. But we can find plenty of evidence that Russian Orthodox Priests operate as propagandists and spies for the Kremlin.
If you, an authoritarian Nazi type who justifies the persecution of people based on their religious preferences in Russia, cared about children, you would, perhaps, begin with Russia itself. But since you are a defacto Nazi, of course all your criticism is aimed at the USA--the opponent/target of the regime you support.
Are you referring to my post on the KGB status of Archbishop Kirill and his involvement with Liberation Theology? This is verified fact. It is not a matter of paranoia, and certainly Hillary has never referenced it.
If you're too ignorant or have too low of an IQ to engage specifically with anything I say, refuting it, then it's better to just stay silent than to debase yourself with deceitful comments such as this.
