RUSSIAN CHURCH DECLARES WAR AGAINST UKRAINE “HOLY”
Russian priests believe that Russian soldiers are defending the “unified spiritual space” and the world from “the tyranny of globalism and the victory of the West, which has fallen into Satanism.”
“Russia is the creator, support, and defender of the “Russkiy mir”. The boundaries of the Russian world, as a spiritual and cultural-civilizational phenomenon, are significantly broader than the state borders of both the modern Russian Federation and the great historical Russia,” the “decree” text says.
“All the deceitfulness of Russian propaganda and all its cynicism are hidden in such seemingly spiritual-moral formulations,” said Serhiy Kasyanchuk, Director of the UWC Mission to Ukraine. “The Russian Orthodox Church sanctifies and blesses the destruction of the entire Ukrainian people, which is an active component of the world Christian community. It sanctifies the weapons that destroy a large part of the Christian world.”
The entire territory of modern Ukraine “must enter the zone of exclusive influence of Russia,” emphasized the Russian clergy. Dozens of church hierarchs and church-related public figures joined the meeting on March 27 in Moscow.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
