Chills went up my spine as I read this NYT article
about the collapsing line between church and state in Russia. That
something like this can happen in the year 2012 is shocking. But
humanity's nonsensical craving for an authoritarian god will always come
to this -- unless rational people guard against it (ahem) religiously.
Alas, in Russia it seems two megalomaniacs have come together in a most unholy way: Putin and his "spiritual father". Seriously, read this and worry. It can happen anywhere, even here in the U.S. In fact, we have GOP loons aiming for this very thing: a communion between government and religion. Shudder.
