Uh, where's the evidence he resisted? I see he was sent to gulag. Does that mean he openly resisted? No, not necessarily. If he openly resisted he would probably be dead -- like all the Catholic bishops of Russia arrested in the 1920's - 1940's. All of them. Dead.

Oh, I'm sorry, but sanormal has informed me that all of those clergy, including the 30,000 Orthodox clergy who were killed, don't count.

Yes, you can only count those who were killed after Stalin panicked after the Nazis invaded and he tried to play nice with the church?

Ok, got the rules now? Very good, please try again!

And how do you know that being thrown in the gulag doesn't indicate resistance? Perhaps because the Orthodox were the only Christian clergy there? Yeah, that one doesn't make sense to me at all. I guess you'll have to explain yourself a little better.
