Right now they are spending their money on renovating churches of
various stripes, where were grossly neglected in the Soviet era. When I
saw that during my last year's visit to Leningrad, I thought the Soviet
screwed that up. Neglecting these beautiful works of architecture was
totally unnecessary. They could have simply re-defined them as products
of human labor, which is what they actually were. They should have
turned them into museums, as they did the Hermitage.

Agreed. Orthodox churches are beautiful.
