Kerotan said: I never realised the Russians took Christianity so seriously. I always thought they were very lax with religion because of communist times which I also thought religion wasn't a big player. But I'm completely uniformed on the subject, and obviously wrong. |
Religion was more or less banned during the communist times in the Soviet Union and the Eastern Bloc, then a lot of people became very religious once communism disappeared completely from Eastern and Central Europe. The only exception is the Czech Republic, where there are actually a lot of atheists. Even in countries like Romania, Bulgaria and Poland the number of atheists is constantly growing.
