[QUOTE="The Liturgist, post: 76620581, member: 424341"] You know Stalin, when he was known as Iosip Jugashveli, was a seminarian in the Georgian Orthodox Church, right? He was expelled or resigned as he became radicalized by communists around that time. I would also note the canonical penances for bludgeoning your son to death can be very severe, up to and including prohibition from communion for 30 years except in extremis. And the Orthodox Church venerates [URL='https://www.oca.org/saints/lives/2013/02/28/100616-blessed-nicholas-salos-of-pskov-the-fool-for-christ']St. Nicholas of Pskov[/URL], a “fool for Christ” who managed to persuade Ivan the Terrible to repent from his proposed destruction of Pskov because he falsely suspected the residents of treason.
