Russian Church Says HIMARS Strikes Are 'Punishment for Abortion' And the War is Punishment for Masturbation
The archpriest of the Russian Orthodox Church (ROC) said that High Mobility Artillery Rocket System (HIMARS) strikes on Russia by Ukraine are God's punishment for abortions, according to the Moscow Times.
During a sermon, Archpriest Andrei Tkachev spoke about the harm abortion does to the Russian gene pool and how Moscow's population did not have the right to "demand happiness" or peace because of it.
He said: "Abortions have destroyed our gene pool, turned us into debauchees and murderers... It is precisely because of the murder of innocents that God punishes," and he went on to say that abortions take "an order of magnitude more" people than war does, and that "it is because of depravity that wars occur. And we will have no peace until we repent," and later discussed the punishment of women who have abortions.
The archpriest also said the reason President Vladimir Putin invaded Ukraine in February 2022 was because of moral decline due to widespread masturbation in Russia, as he said that "If semen spills anywhere, then future blood spills along with the semen."

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"
