Unhappy with what it sees as the frivolously comedic coverage of their grand prince by the Russian media in connection with the lawsuit, the Princes' Foundation site warns: "Let us add that the Rurik family is descended from ancient gods whom one would do well not to disturb, otherwise the consequences for the jokesters will be dire."

Militant atheism was part and parcel of Soviet state policy up until 1943, when Stalin agreed to some compromises with the church in return for support in the war effort. “Militant atheism” meant, in many cases, a violent, hateful attack on religion including the disenfranchisement of the churches, the mocking of rituals, and the oppression of priests and believers up to and including deportation and murder.

Russia seems to have found its way to the middle ground, less secular than France and comparable to Germany.
The constitution of the Russian Federation mentions religion several times. Article 14:
1. The Russian Federation is a worldly government. No religion may ever be considered a state religion or an obligatory religion.
2. Religious organizations are separate from the state and are equal before the law.

* "At the request of parents and with the agreement of the children (!) studying in state or municipal schools, the administration of the schools may, with the agreement of local government, allow religious organizations to instruct children in religion outside of normal class time". This will probably eventually result in a German-type system, where "Protestant" or "Catholic" classes taught by trained religion pedagogues and "Ethics" classes for non-believers take up a few hours of class time per week.
* Religious organizations can not participate in politics as organizations.
* The government can intervene in religious affairs or even dissolve religious organizations if religious ceremonies or traditions or activities are contrary to the law.

All in all, the law contains nothing very dramatic or surprising. It seems well in line with European church-state relations in general.

President Putin decided not to invite the Patriarch of Moscow and All Russia Aleksey II (he is always named with full title) to his inauguration on the 7th of May even though Yeltsin had invited him four years earlier.

U rusiji ima manje vernika nego u većini zapadnoevropskih država

Nije. Evropski prosek je 50% sa izuzetkom Skandinavije i Estonije 

već sam pisao da su mnogo dekadentnije države one u kojima većina ljudi veruje u boga, npr. Brazil, venecuela, Argentina... sve priznaju gej brakove. argentina čak priznaje i usvajanje dece od strane homoseksualaca. Isto je i u Španiji dok su Velika Britanija, Francuska i Nemačka daleko umerenije po ovom pitanju.

U rusiji ima manje vernika nego u većini zapadnoevropskih država + mnogi se vraćaju svojoj staroj slovenskoj veri.

Report from Moscow: Religion and Atheism in Russia http://www.atheism.ru/old/HatAth1.html

According to a recent study "only" 47% of Russians say they "believe in God" but percentage of non-believers who feel that religion is necessary to maintain national consciousness: over 60%.

To uopste nije tacno, tamo su ljudi daleko privrzeniji Crkvi nego ovde.
