Arguments and facts

It seems that the same people are writing training manuals for Nashi trolls and Putin. Yesterday in London, he repeated almost verbatim what I have already banned a hundred, or even two hundred commentators for: if only they had tried to come to a mosque or synagogue.

Putin, like the Nashists, was not told that literally the day before the Istanbul prosecutor’s office refused to open a criminal case against the well-known Ukrainian group FEMEN, whose members staged their “blasphemy” at the doors of the mosque, shaking their naked tits. Moreover, one of their slogans was: “Death to the barbarians!” They were released and banned from entering Turkey for a year. Rumors about the bloodthirstiness of mosque visitors are greatly exaggerated. Deacon Andrei Kuraev admitted that when he is abroad in Islamic countries, he goes to the mosque and prays there. Of course, not Mohammed. Now imagine the picture: a Muslim enters the Cathedral of Christ the Savior, spreads a rug closer to the altar, focusing on Mecca, and... How long will he stay there?

Orthodox fundamentalism, propagated by the Russian Orthodox Church, can only be compared with Iranian fundamentalism, but not with the practice of civilized Islamic countries. What is happening now in the Khamovnichesky Court has no analogues.

Now about synagogues. It must be said that all kinds of anti-Semitic acts near synagogues and directly in synagogues around the world happen regularly. I haven’t heard of synagogue visitors tearing anti-Semites to pieces. Many remember the outrageous incident that occurred in a Moscow synagogue in 2006, when Alexander Koptsev burst in and attacked the worshipers with a knife. He injured eight people. He was, of course, detained and handed over to the police. Did numerous synagogue visitors attempt to kill him? No, it wasn't even close. By the way, the Moscow City Court, having found Koptsev guilty of attempted murder, acquitted him under Article 282 (“Actions aimed at inciting hatred or enmity, as well as humiliating the dignity of a person or group of persons on the basis of gender, race, nationality, language, origin, attitude to religion") and only after the Supreme Court did not agree with this and sent the case for a new trial, this article was applied, with great difficulty.

Notice that the Nashists and Putin exclaim demagogically: “What would happen to them if they went to Israel or the Caucasus and desecrated something there?” But they don’t ask the question: “What would happen to them if they did the same thing in a Christian church somewhere in Europe?” But it would be more correct to ask this way. The girls are Christians, why would they rush to the mosque to pray to the Mother of God to take Putin?

And I know why Putin didn’t ask the question this way. And he himself knows. Because in Christian churches, nothing would have been done to them. I once wrote about a recent incident in which a young Muslim man from Somalia climbed onto the altar of the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore in Florence, turned on the tape recorder and started dancing wildly. The blasphemous act, of course, was stopped and taken to the police, and all the way he offered prayers to Allah and had no intention of repenting. Yes, no one demanded any repentance from him; After paying a fine, he was released on all four sides. And in the Vatican, such events, alas, generally occur regularly. By the way, FEMEN also exposed themselves in the Vatican: during Sunday mass in St. Peter's Square, right under the balcony of the Pope. They took me to the police. Four hours later, porn star Cicciolina was released on bail.

At the same time, both the Vatican and Florence cathedrals are not just places of worship, they are repositories of masterpieces of Christian culture. These are symbols of Christian civilization. The same cannot be said about the newly built Cathedral of Christ the Savior with its very dubious decoration from an artistic point of view and a very dubious reputation.

Putin's level is the level of the Seliger Nashist.
