@chica476 Stop. Why would you say that on a religious video. And what do you mean by "state-run religion" and "corruption".

[chica476]

Russian corruption in the form of state-run religion.

@DanielR305 How about the Vatican ? Are they not one of the richest, are not their children starving also??? The monies that are collected in each church from the people is how the robes of gold & silver threads are afforded.Everything is a gift from the people to the CHURCH.

A warm farewell to this great Christian leader who led this huge country from the darkness of atheism to the light of faith. From a Roman Catholic believer.

what I find amusing they afford all these robes with gold and sliver in them yet the russian gov. and russian orthodox church let children of russia starve yet these priests get constant back big quads of money for various info for their gov in exchange for a nice life yet they don't help the poor and needy and I do wonder with the greatest respect which priests are devout followers and whom are are and just in the church to get a nice bed food warmth and shelter I wonder.
