On Friday, Russian President Vladimir Putin held a massive super-rally in Moscow in celebration of the liberation of Crimea and the ongoing liberation of the Ukraine.
He filled a full stadium, with what must have been hundreds of thousands of people outside of the stadium.
He declared glory to the Russian people and nation, and quoted the Bible, saying that the mission in the Ukraine is blessed by God.
Seeing all of those maskless, beautiful, smiling, patriotic, white faces rallying in the name of their nation and leader… it was a somewhat somber reminder of the glory years of the Trump Age. And maybe some other glorious ages in other countries too – WINK WINK WINK.
His statements of glory to Russia as it was then and as it will be forever are also Biblically inspired – harking back to Russia’s religious roots in the Eastern Roman Empire.
You love to see it.
It’s not my country, of course.
But those people look like me, and they worship the same God as me, so it is difficult not to feel a greater kinship with them than the multiracial, anal, atheistic hell that is current year America.
I don’t think that makes me a traitor. If it does, then I will say that I would rather be a traitor to my country than to my God and my ancient heritage as a member of Christendom.
In the end, I want for America what Russia currently has for Russia.
I want a proud leader, who makes the people proud, who is willing to stand up and say “glory to God and glory to our people!”
