Russian Priest Mocks Darwin's "Monkey Theory" on Major TV Broadcast
Treating Darwin with just as much respect as he deserves...
One thing I love about Russia is that the Orthodox Church is a mainstream part of society, and its priests are not afraid to speak the truth openly.
Trusting in Scripture, not tempted to fall for the materialistic superstitions of atheistic scientists, Fr. Artemy Vladimirov has a little fun at Darwin’s expense:
It is good to know that there are bold Russian priests who don’t cower to the godless modernist establishment which has enthralled so much of modern academia.
And this is nothing new. Russia has a long line of godly Orthodox bishops and priests who have spoken the truth openly, without concern for conseuences.
In the following two articles, Holy Russia vs. Darwin and Communists Interrogate Canonized Saints for Questioning Evolution, we hear the holy voices of Russian saints in generations past, who faithfully spoke out against the errors of evolutionary theory:
For centuries, the Russian Orthodox Church has taught the truth about our Creator, and about our special place in the universe. Modern Orthodox priests are faithfully preserving the Church’s holy traditions, continuing to teach the truth as it has been received.
I am grateful for this holy legacy, and I pray that the church here will continue teaching the truth for many generations to come.
This is yet another reason why my family and I want to leave to Russia even the ROCHOR is starting to be affected by this terrible lie and they call it theistic evolution. Father Seraphim Rose has a great book "Genesis, Creation, and Early Man: The Orthodox Vision" showing many quotes from the fathers who completely disagreed and were fighting theories similar to this lie back in their day.
