Surf..don't even go there with him...lol...let him believe that we are from monkeys...lol..he's only a product of communism..what do you expect? That's what they taught them since they were children..and it's funny because they were surrounded by religious art everywhere but not all Russians believe what Russki believes, thank God. See it's easier to hate and kill when you don't believe in a higher being. |

What's amazing is that the Orthodox Churches were given back some of their properties since 1992 and there is a renewal of faith that is growing in Russia...people are going back to church and some are joining monasteries. My Russian friend just got back from Russia and she went to a woman's monastery that had over 500 nuns. Can you imagine that one time Valaam monastery had over a 1,000 monks alone? It's amazing that these monasteries are still around even though the Communists used them as gulags, movie theatres, museum, and asylums.
Many of the Cossacks left Russia during the Communist era...Some went to Harbin, China; Caracus, Venezuela; San Francisco, CA and New York...I know a couple of them...we call one lady Olga from the Volga...Cossack woman...lol |

Well, if you don't belive me, then I guess you don't believe Darwin, one of the most brilliant scientists of all time. Once again, I say fuck religion. All it does is divide people. And once again, Stephen, unless you want me to get started with the Sorbs and homsexuals again, don't ever talk shit about Communists. |

What does Sorbs and homosexuals have anything to do with this forum? We are talking about things that are part of Russian culture, aren't we? The Russian Orthodox Church is part of Russia's history...and so is Communism..So I can talk about these subjects all I want..positive and negative..and I'm not going to take your bullying either..So you want to change this forum into hating gays and Sorbs so go right ahead..you'll look like the idiot that you are. Is it not true that Communists were not church friendly system? Or are you trying to start something here. What is Russki? You have alot of anger in you. If you don't like me talking about Communism than you better tell half of the people on here too..However, this has nothing to do about me hating Communism this has to do with me be different and than you. See if you were a Christian you wouldn't throw stones...but I take you for what you really are..and that is ignorant. Go ahead throw the first stone...God knows it makes you feel much better. |

Yeah, whatever...  "Commies this... Commies that..." Just shut the hell up. Do not provoce me anymore. I don't want to have even more things to apologize for in the future. Just see my post on "OffTopic". |

Religion is man made...I don't really agree with organized churches etc. But that's me. Darwin was proved to be a fraud...he stole much of his info from other people. And we know for a fact that evolution doesn't necessarily apply to modern man. I'm not sure what does...but when I find out I will let you know. I can say this...many a athiest soldiers who have been mortally wounded in combat have all asked for God...also this said many going into combat have also asked for God...it's a natural instinct for sure. But to each his own. As far as communism goes...hey we all can probably agree that it is a great idea...problem is it doesn't work...man's own faults and character doesn't allow for it. There are leaders and there are sheep...there are those who give and those who take...those who are hard working and those who are lazy...Communism just can't allow for this...it doesn't work! |

Another "meaningful" bit of detritus from this contributor.
Admin, do his, and StephenB's logins mean that much to your revenue that you would compromise the integrity of the site for them?
Let them go, and their place will be taken with fresh contributors that have something to offer in terms of travel experience.
Way to Russia should attract those seeking just that. Not all the shit that dribbles from the forum lately. |

| You are one to talk Nikir...if you don't like it...don't read it...Too bad you know nothing! Perhaps you are the missing link? Perhaps you should check out redtape.ru. Or better yet stick to the visa threads. We all are entitled to our opinions...and free speech means we can express them. If you don't like them...too bad! |

Actually we are not coming from the monkeys but monkeys and human being are coming from the same branch.
I am coming from a Catholic spanish family and I trust Darwin not the Bible. I can assure you that most of people of Europe are like me, they have Christian values but think that human being coming from Adam and Eve is absolute bullshit.
The same with Mary... giving birth being virgin ? What a joke.
Jesus was the son of a woman from a jewish tribe and his father was probably a Roman.
This said, I always lived with the picture of Jesus and I don't reject my Christian background. Jesus was a great man but simply a man. |

The truth of the matter is that our dna is nearly identical to the chimpanzee. What can explain this, other than Darwin's theory of evolution? All religions can only be considered theory as well, since there is no tangible evidence to support any of them. And I believe in Jesus as well. |
