I never said I liked Stalin, Jack. And I don’t know why you’re talking about the Soviet Union, when that has nothing to do with Russia today. The Catholic Church is in bed with the Democrat Party in USA. You know, the Party that murders babies, loves sodomites and perverts, and hates Christianity? In Russia, perverted sex “education and sodomy are not pushed in Elementsry and Middle Schools. I ask a simple question for you to give me evidence of Catholicism being persecuted and instead of giving that evidence, you just unload a bunch of garbage and just state that Russia “continues to attack the Church today” as though those mere words are evidence of a persecution I have never heard of. Come back with evidence or don’t come back at all, I have no time to talk to someone who clearly doesn’t want to talk, and instead wants to call me a Communist. You’re pretty self righteous and arrogant by the way. I’m not Communist yet you call me a Communist by talking about me loving Stalin and the Soviet Union. I’m a Catholic, yet you call me Orthodox just because I try looking at the Orthodox Church objectively and reject your meaningless questions trying to put down the Orthodox Church. Russia is in bed with China, just like the USA and the West, because China is a major superpower. Russia needs allies and friends, especially with the degenerate West trying to isolate her. And the Pope makes a deal with the Chinese Communists, even though Catholic Chinese didn’t like that by the way. Your comments tell me you don’t know anything about Russia. Russia’s population problem is being helped by Putin’s pro-family policies and has gotten better, though of course there’s still work to do. Major Pornography websites have been banned. By the way, in the West your population is declining too. In the United States, you can’t tell because immigrants come and make up for the population decline. And in Europe, where the population is in decline, they do the same thing. Japan also has a declining population. I’m not sure what your criticism is, as though this is a unique Russian problem? At least Russia, Poland, and Hungary are doing something to try to fix it, what is NATO doing?
