The installation of Putin's secularism is a shock pace. The state invades more and more new areas, reformatting spiritual life for its tasks. The religious associations that are difficult to include with the help of “quiet requests”, which include the communities of Pentecostals, witnesses of Jehovah, Krishnas, alternative Orthodoxy, are subjected to high pressure.

The year 2016 was terrible, but instructive in Russia. Fate checked a democratic opposition for strength. Will it beg? Will he get away from the Polubovaya Political Road? Will the rotten intelligent discussions about morality and the limits of the permissible in the swamp? Looked! Not lost! Not stuck! A year began with the need to create a territorial group in the occupied territory. Without this, the opposition was not allowed to the polls.

If for the past few years the Russian Orthodox Church could be reproached for the fact that in its understanding, in its understanding, to the “moral revival of society”, it consistently narrows the space of freedom, fully supporting repressive lawmaking, then a qualitative turn occurred in the last year - in public space, obvious attempts to expand the space of arbitrariness were observed.
