Russia bans Jehova Witnesses, how very Progressive of them.
If Trump would convert to being a Jehovah Witness he wouldn't have to be worried about being accused of collaboration with Russia. Then again he couldn't talk because the left in America would claim his talk, hate speech. Maybe a win, win.
Good Morning Son,
Orthodox Christianity is Russia's largest religion with about 75%~80% of the population belonging to the Orthodox Christian denomination last I read.. it also said Putin was very supportive of it ..I watched "the Christmas Service" he attended this past Christmas as well..
It may be that he simply believes as said in your article???? Troubling as they claim freedom of religion there after the number of times Christians were captured, tortured and killed throughout the early years of Russia...

Putin has made prayer in school mandatory because under communist's atheist agenda, Christianity was criminalized and after his own conversion, Putin saw Christianity as beneficial to his country. But he is also not going to allow cults like the Jehovah's witnesses. I expect our own founders if they could have foreseen what someday would be called religion in America would have included boundaries.

The article says Jehovah witnesses is an American Christianity.. I did not know that and googled it because I questioned it.. Turns out it is and is from 1870 forward.. They do not use the teachings of the Bible other than some.. They developed their own, which I did know that..
Perhaps this is another reason Russia banned the religion?? Yet the allow Islamic teachings from the Quran... Amazes me it does!!
Russia is not a free country.

Jehovah's witnesses do not believe Jesus was the Son of God, nor do they believe in the Holy Trinity. They cannot, therefore, be classified as a Christian religion regardless of what the theologians at Google might say. I love it when they knock at my door and I can prove to them the errors of their belief. That would be called doing a good work. So is intercessory prayer.

My sister is an intercessor of her church.....She attends a non~denominational church now after having gone to Presbetarin churchfor many years before..
I know about the Jehovah witnesses as a few have knocked on my door too..I just politely tell them I am a believer and Thank You, but no Thank You...If they presist as many has I have no problem of dismissing them as I am then closing my door....

This is about finding scapegoats. Minorities, religious or otherwise are targets. Leftists are leftists. Conform or be destroyed. If the Left had been able to build on Obama's power with the election of Hillary we would have continued to move towards Russian style oppression. Trump needs to clean out the universities. Sooner or later the Democrats will forgive Russia her sins and begin accepting Russian money again.

First, it must be determined if Russia is guilty of what the Democrats claim she is or if it's just cover for Hillary losing the election. The liberals in France are using the same excuse in their election.

I am not exactly in tune with Jehovah Witnesses, but that is beside the point. They are a religion under attack by Putin. If no one defends them, who will defend me and my beliefs when the bad guys come for me? Oh, I don't live in Russia. ObamAmerica was heading in that direction. When Trump retires from the White House the American Marxist Atheists will once again attack us.
