[lbo-talk] Criticism of Russian Church role

[Peter Lavelle]

And what about the Hare Krishnas who march down Stary Arbat every  weekend? They number about 30-40 and their follwers. I see them all the  time as I entertain guests at the Hard Rock Cafe.  They make a lot  noice for a few minutes and the tourist love them. They march, people  watch, and they move on. The police have zero interest in them. And  American style holy-rollers and Bible thumpers (sadly) are all over the  place. There is a lot of freedom of religion in Russia.......

apopletic rage. The statement that "only Orthodoxy,
Islam, Judaism, and Buddhism are allowed" is
completely false, and the reporter could have
determined this easily by looking under "Church,
Catholic" in the Moscow Yellow Pages, or by walking by
any one of these churches, like the big one frequented
by Poles in northwest Moscow that has been there since
c. 1911.
