End of Times Values. The Demise of America
From Pravda by Stojgniev O’Donnell April 2006
Russian Christians now admit that the concept of human rights and liberties as advocated by America and the West has no application in contemporary Russia . That country is drowning in vices directly linked to the West’s concept of inherent rights and liberties: abortion; homosexuality; dissolution of traditional marriage; pornography; slavery, prostitution, and exploitation of the oppressed, etc. The Russian Orthodox now understand that such American ‘values’ are, in fact, vices which harm every human society as a collective. Such American ‘rights’ have not brought happiness. They represent the deviance of the cult of the individual. From my Third World perspective, I am amazed that some Americans continue to argue that America’s virtue is that it protects such ‘rights’ (=vices).
Nice critique, but I don’t see the Russians fairing any better in the abortion department, wholesale contraception and a depopulation rate of 1 million people net less per year.
