That's the only thing Protestants got right and exactly why I respect them more than Cucktholics
I am an Orthodox myself btw.
you want a Reformation?
Na, just a separation of Church and State.
(Unless that's Reformation idk)
You still want the current hierarchy to remain?
Current hierarchy in what way?
like aren't protestant churches much more Independence, a lot of these sects, and each individual church has a lot of leeway in terms of what they teach and there's less control in top down
I would certainly attempt to keep Orthodox Church as it is, with hierarchies and beliefs, just without intervention from worldly forces and get rid of the cockroaches within.
what if the state begins to pass laws and rulings that don't jive with those beliefs and teachings?
Then the disenfranchised people would seek refuge with the Church.
Besides, with Christianity not tainted by corruption, more people would turn to religion, hence the government would have more difficulty passing bad laws unimpeded.
not if the Media and Academia are on the Government's side
even if public opinion is completely opposed to what a government is doing, if they can't organize, it doesn't amount to anything
media can just demonize vast majority of people and organised activists and lawyers with money behind them can neutralize any remaining opposition
I believe that Christianity's message, as opposed to the media's message, is inherently constructive and will prevail even with media opinion against it
The only way it can fail is by using the tactics of its enemies.
I'm saying that even if it does, it won't amount to a political effect
I know, I simply say that the end result of Christianity transcends political trifles.
Would it matter if Russia became like current day India where the state is secular when it comes to Orthodox Christians, but then when it comes other *minority* religions, it's Affirmative Action and Identitarianism all day?
Like even if a whole lot of Russians become actual orthodox Christians, it still leaves open the possibility of an Oppressive Government being in charge and social Engineering
unless, you can Organize..
Organizations ofc are prone to Corruption, always.
