"Hitler, they say, believed that everyone would submit to the ruler, who possesses Longin's spear, and was looking for him." Andrey Kuraev about Putin's hopes for "Trinity"
Marfa Smirnova: Andrei Vyacheslavovich, do you generally understand in what conditions the “Trinity” will be stored after the physical transmission of the Russian Orthodox Church? Andrey Kuraev: Let's start from afar. Many church people say: “Well, how, icons were written for the church, the church kept them for centuries - and nothing, the icons were not lost.” Lost. If the ancient icons were calmly preserved in our temples, then today we would have thousands of ancient icons.
