"Pokrov Truth" is now calling out ROCOR for betraying Holy Russia by not being sufficiently jingoist. Their strategic and dishonest neutrality wherein they make a false moral equivalence between Kiev and Moscow is being taken as perfidy, which it is. The problem is that ROCOR thereby whitewashes Russian crimes. Apparently nothing less than full-throated baying for Ukrainian blood will be satisfactory for this moral crusader.

I knew it was only a matter of time before this was picked up by this particular sub. Get ready for a detailed exposition from the Holy Fathers about why Catholics are worse than pagans.

Here's the essence of the post, reasoning from statements of the sometime fascist sympathizer Velimirovich and his disciple Popovic:

St. Nikolai Velimirovic calls christian herersy -catholicism and protestantism - worse than paganism.

Words to the Serbian People through the Dungeon Window ~ What is Europe? Heresy. It is heresy. First of all, the papist heresy then the Lutheran heresy... Europe is heresy And any Christian heresy is worse than oaganism

Likewise, St. Justin Popovich says similar. He calls Roman Catholicism a "European Humanism". and this Humanism inevitably descends into atheism:

The Orthodox Church and Ecumenism ~ the anti-evangelical principle was borrowed from papism as a reliaious European humanism by all other trends of European humanism...papist humanism. Humanism inevitably develops into atheism, passes through anarchism, and culminates in nihilism. If someone is a atheist todav, know that if they are consistent, they will be an anarchist tomorrow, and a nihilist the day after.
