Artes beat me to it, but I'll still say that I didn't insult anyone and didn't intend to. And you, Alexey, first provide examples of Orthodox Christians openly insulting Muslims. My remark about "infidels" was specifically directed at radicals, and it was said in the heat of the moment. I even understand them; they are defending their homeland from the encroachment of American military forces. And especially for Alexey, as food for thought, I will explain the meaning of Orthodoxy in one word: love. In advance, for those who are going to point out the flaws of Orthodoxy, saying, "What kind of love is this if this and that?" I ask: Do you think that becoming Orthodox automatically makes you pure and good? People strive to understand the essence of their religion, including myself. I may say something wrong, simply because I still don't know enough. And on your part, Alexey, it's simply foolish to think that you know Orthodoxy just like that. Knowledge of history is not enough. If you are interested in this topic, read the Bible and sacred books. I especially recommend Paisius of Mount Athos' "With Pain and Love," which I am currently reading. And for the last time, I ask: change the topic. It's clear that everyone has their own view on the general situation. Some people like monarchy, others like socialism. And by arguing about what is better, you will only quarrel and the most wonderful topic on this forum will turn into a snake pit. I will not write another post about politics here, because it is not worth "making a fuss" over.
