the same could be said for America?
lots of unjust laws, I have not heard many church leaders speak out against the government/society
I do agree with you that Putin is doing a lot of evil things
I am not educated enough to know if the Russian Orthodox Church is preaching the Gospel to those who are doing evil
I would like to hope that they are
either way, God will judge them
the laws in the OP do not really bother me, they are aimed at protecting children from immoral teachings
as a society, the US has given up on the idea of Christian Morals as a norm
the Orthodox Church in Russia should support the government when it does good things and call out the government when it does bad things
Yeah, but some draconian laws have been made in the name of morality but strip away people's freedoms. I mean they will throw people in jail for putting out gay material or displaying open sexuality. That kind of thing is a really extreme thing to do. Take personal responsibility and just avoid those things shoved into your face. Or maybe have regulations on what is displayed towards children. I don't think gay pride parades should be banned but taken to a PG level. I don't want the state help promote morals that is supposed to be the church's.
