Christianity; the World's Most Violently Persecuted Religion
#78
RE: Christianity; the World's Most Violently Persecuted Religion
Less talked about - and perhaps far under represented - is the persecution of Christians in Russia.

- State ownership of the Church; anyone not swearing fealty o the FSB Patriarch of Moskovisky Kirill are at risk of persecution; additional taxes levied by the state, confiscation of property, reassigning of priests to both isolate rebellious figures and install loyal agents being common events.
- In Ukraine, Russians have been caught torturing and executing pastors, monks, nuns and other religious vocationals as well as mass looting and destruction of Orthodox landmarks across the land.

Most Russians are in living memory of the Soviet Union; the persecution of Christians under that regime was beyond horrific.
