As you watch the video and read the article excerpt from RT (an official propaganda outlet of the Russian government), remember that everything Putin said could have come straight out of Francis’ blasphemous blabbering mouth.
Russian President Vladimir Putin has likened communism to Christianity and Vladimir Lenin’s mausoleum in Moscow’s Red Square to the veneration of the relics of saints.
“Maybe I’ll say something that someone might dislike, but that’s the way I see it,” Putin said in an interview for the documentary Valaam, an excerpt of which was broadcast on Russia 1. “First of all, faith has always accompanied us, becoming stronger every time our country, our people, have been through hard times.
“There were those years of militant atheism when priests were eradicated, churches destroyed, but at the same time a new religion was being created. Communist ideology is very similar to Christianity, in fact: freedom, equality, brotherhood, justice – everything is laid out in the Holy Scripture, it’s all there. And the code of the builder of communism? This is sublimation, it’s just such a primitive excerpt from the Bible, nothing new was invented.”
Putin went further by comparing the Communists’ attitude to the Bolshevik leader Lenin to the veneration of saints in Christianity. “Look, Lenin was put in a mausoleum. How is this different from the relics of saints for Orthodox Christians and just for Christians? When they say that there’s no such tradition in Christianity, well, how come, go to Athos and take a look, there are relics of the saints there, and we have holy relics here,” Putin concluded.

More on Vladimir Putin:
Putin is attempting to appeal to socialists in order to win the election. It is unfortunate that so many socialists still exist in Russia. All Russians should condemn socialism and their country's socialist past.
ReplyDeleteWhat Putin is saying is correct. The Communists did create a sort of secular religion without God, and the Lenin Mausoleum is a mockery of a saint's tomb. It is important to know whether the Russian President was expressing approval at the establishment of this pseudo-religion or merely noting that it had taken place.By the way, Our Lord's Name should not be used as an alias.
ReplyDeleteLike all despotic dictators Putin needs conversion. This will only happen when Russia is consecrated to the Immaculate Heart of Mary as per Her request. Successive communist popes/hierarchies have so far refused to comply. The answer must lie in their fear of the power given Her by God over their nefarious laws imposed on their subjects & the persecutions that have arisen from them. If they truly didn't believe in God they would not have such fear & would have carried out this short procedure in order to improve their image with the general public, if nothing else.
ReplyDeleteA Church Not Engaged in Self-Destruction
ReplyDeleteMoscow Patriarch Kirill has announced statistical data on the life of the Russian Orthodox Church. Since 2009 this Church has increased the number of dioceses by 144. Since last year over 1300 new churches have been consecrated. The number of male and female monasteries has increased. Unlike the Catholic Church, the Russian Orthodox Church is not plagued by liturgical abuses and doctrinal confusion.

Saint Bernadette: "I only fear bad Catholics."
Very sad that the FBI missed all of the many signals sent out by the Florida school shooter. This is not acceptable. They are spending too much time trying to prove Russian collusion with the Trump campaign - there is no collusion. Get back to the basics and make us all proud!
ReplyDeleteLeaving Roman Catholicism for Eastern Orthodoxy.
ReplyDeletePutin is ...hot even if he does look a little like Dobby.

The Eastern Orthodox are just as wacked out and zionist as the Novus Ordo.
