____________________________________
There it is… the long and the short of it all. Russia is returning to its roots in Orthodoxy… it’s rejected the West’s opium dream in toto, both religious and secular. This angers the Westerners, as they’re “superior”, dontcha know! Russia has its own traditions and it won’t reject them in favour of foreign innovations and geegaws. That angers the West, especially, the American toddlers. However, the Old Master puts it simply, as he always does. “Russia’s return to Orthodoxy repels the West”. What more need he say?
