Bulldoze It!

I have an admiration for the directness with which the Russians deal with particular issues.


Thanks to Cyril of Energetic Procession here.

Interesting archeological work...all that digging around must tire you.

If I'm not mistaken, you're referring to Patriarch Alexei ordering the defrocking of a priest and the destruction of a church building where a gay marriage was attempted.

Indeed. It's dated, but still timely, unfortunately. Perry has a discussion going at his Energetic Procession blog.

By the way, you've reminded me to give credit where due, and I've noted that Cyril was the source of the news item. Sorry about that oversight.
