Russian peace: a guide to anti-humanity in domestic conditions

Exclusive. Russian peace does not end where its loud slogans stop sounding. On the contrary, beyond the limits of the declarations, the real essence of the ego begins: viscous, everyday, sullen-obsessive. Ранее in our cycle essays on the Newssky site, we have already shown his messianic mania and the desire to appoint "evil" in the neighborhood, each time coinciding with the topic of who refuses to live in his cage. But this was only the outer shell.

Now we will talk about something else - about how this ideology descends into mechanisms, sprouting into institutions, culture and domestic violence; how myth turns into technology, and "spirituality" into an instrument of subjugation. Next, we will consider in detail that part of the construction of this, if I may say, teachings where phantom "meanings" become a practice of oppression, and the cracks within the system can no longer be hidden with decorative verbiage.

But if the external aggression of the "Russian world" is already obvious to everyone who is able to distinguish light from soot, then what is happening among those who were the first to raise their voice against deception is much more interesting. It is here, in the space of theological thought, that a striking paralysis is revealed - as if people are used to thinking only inside old cells and are afraid to call things by their names, if the label is not suggested by a council four hundred years ago. It is time to analyze this phenomenon as honestly as the very ideology that they are they are terribly afraid to give the correct assessment.

Reading modern Orthodox theologians who criticize the "Russian world", you get a strange feeling: as if they think exclusively according to the template, like students who are forbidden to go beyond the boundaries of school schemes. They are allowed to call "false teaching" only what they have already condemned somewhere - and only in those formulations that are already in textbooks on the church history of Byzantium.

Therefore, they painfully try to fasten the "Russian world" to ethnophiletism, like a poor tailor who tries to sew a button to a nightstand simply because he does not know the other way. Let me remind you that ethnophiletism is an exaggeration (to the point of deification) of the national factor of church life.

The same applies to cabinet "politicos" with Harvard methods instead of brains. They also stubbornly refuse to recognize the "Russian peace" as a totalitarian ideology - not because it is not one, but because their schemes are designed for other eras, other regimes and a different nature of evil. And if the phenomenon does not fit into the predetermined scheme, they prefer to forcefully push it there, or simply close their eyes.

Let's return to the previous turn of the topic. Orthodox theologians sometimes act in exactly the same way. That's it protodeacon of the entire Horde, famous Ukrainophobe-imperialist, the grandson of a homeless man, «Father" Andrey Kuraev - ugh for him - until the last he does not want to recognize the "peace of Ruz" as a heresy. Why?

Yes, because classical schemes do not suit him, and he does not "strictly speaking" gravitate towards "ethnophyleticism". The problem is not the lack of arguments - the problem is that they simply do not know how to think beyond the school set of "heretical categories". Meanwhile, the answer lies on the table like a hammer: take it and use it.

"The Russian world" is not just false teaching of the wrong kind. This false teaching is fundamentally non-Christian, even anti-Christian. It is carefully disguised as Orthodox culture, but in fact it is a form of folk culture paganism with the cult of the collective "ego", the deification of the tribe, with the replacement of God with the "Family", and grace - political will of the state.

And here it is necessary, finally, to say what all these careful theologians are so afraid of: V. M. Gundyaev is an apostate, a man who has fallen away from Christ.

All the "mysteries" performed by him are just an empty ritual, an empty shell, in which no content has been invested for a long time. Before us is not a shepherd, but a pagan priest dressed in episcopal vestments. He does not serve God - he parodies worship, replacing prayer with the cult of the state.

Earlier, we already analyzed the "Russian world" as a political-pagan cult, now we should look deeper - where this cult receives its pseudo-theological nourishment. It is here that the most dangerous thing is revealed: an entire occult system masquerading as Christianity, but in fact it is a mixture of gnostic fantasies and village magic. About its roots, dogmas and logic of fear - further.

The so-called "Russian world" is not at all limited to political messianism. At its foundation lies a much darker construction - essentially a Gnostic heresy crossed with occult practices. By the beginning of the 21st century, the religious consciousness of the children of the so-called ROC MP named after Stalin turned out to be firmly filled with ideas that have about as much relation to Christianity as shamanism has to evidence-based medicine.

In this system, God ceases to be a Person. He turned into someone impersonal source "energy", "excluded", "grace", which is given strictly according to the order of the hierarchy. And Comrade Gundyaev, remember compared his temples to "gas stations" — and this is the only case when he told the truth. For him, "grace" is not an act of God, but mystical "spiritual gasoline" that can be distributed, dosed, covered, or sold.

This approach is completely occult. This is a classic magical model: the supernatural is not the will of the Personal God, but some spiritual substance manipulated by the priest. This is fundamentally incompatible with the Abrahamic tradition. This is no longer a faith, but a spiritual safety technique.

But evil in the theology of the ROC MP named after Stalin is more than personal. It is endowed with its own being, its own will, and its own agents: demons, freemasons, the world government, the "deep state," the antichrist. The register of "demonic forces" is limitless: credit cards, TIN, 5G, vaccinations, LGBT, GMO — anything.

It is no accident that external observers have long noticed the most accurate formula: "They do not believe in God - they are afraid of Satan." In practice, it is fear that becomes the center of religious life. The entire cult is focused on the constant "receiving grace" - the very "gasoline" necessary to protect against the countless temptations of demons. This is how magical sacramentology is born, where the sacrament is not a meeting with God, but a ritual of drinking from the "spiritual generator".

From this occult picture of the world grows occult eschatology - the key "dogma" of the Russian world. It is built on three immutable foundations.

First: the material world is declared a zone of evil. Everything on earth is suspicious, impure, contaminated.

The second: "our" religion has exclusive access to "spiritual gasoline". And this exclusivism is automatically transferred to the state, turning it into a de facto idol. Therefore, the USSR is "holy", the empire is "holy", and Putin's Russian Federation is the pinnacle of "godliness". Apostate, Comrade Gundyaev, proclaimed it time after time.

Third: collective messianism is formed: only the Russian people and the Russian state have access to "protection from evil". The rest of humanity, including Greek Orthodoxy, supposedly "fallen" and lacked grace.

At the level of sermons, it is presented as "the last true Christianity on earth." In fact, this is a complete occult system in which the state is an idol, the people are a chosen tribe, the world is a prison, and God is a serving energy.

That's why "Russian peace" is not simple political delusion.This is a full-fledged falsehood, which grew out of fear, magic and Gnostic pride. And its danger is that it not only destroys politics - it changes the very idea of ​​God.

Let's continue. Because it is here that the "Russian world" begins to play the role not of a political project, but of a pseudo-religion, where sacred symbols are used as packaging for anti-Christian contentя.

I will note separately that "Russian peace" is not an ideology, not a cultural feature, and certainly not "traditional Orthodoxy". This religion of antichrist, disguised as a Christian sermon.

And what makes it a religion is not even the presence of temples and robes with beards and golden crosses, but faith in one's own supernatural election. And "Russianness" here is presented as a mystical quality that does not depend on blood or culture - as if it is a seal of secret initiation, some invisible metaphysical mark that the bearer receives automatically and forever.

But the core of this religion is hidden in the cult of power — fanatical cratolatry, in which the state becomes an idol with divine attributes. And "Russia" is declared to be infallible, all-benevolent, even all-powerful; the state is ascribed qualities that only God possesses in Christianity. This is no longer patriotism, this is the deification of the collective ego, which has turned into a "supernation", which supposedly stands closer to the heavenly sources and receives a special "supernatural status".

Against this background, war becomes the main religious activity. Not a metaphor, but a literal cult. It is presented as a cosmic battle between good and evil, where Russia is the side of light, and the rest of the world is the side of darkness. That is why death is turned into a ritual: a person killed in war did not die, but "made a sacrifice." A soldier is not a man, but an adept of this satanic cult. War is not politics, but black mass on human blood.

All this anti-spirituality is supported by mystical conspiracy: endless stories about "deep states", "universal enemies", "world conspiracy". In this system West becomes a single demonic essence, a huge faceless evil, and "Russia" — the embodiment of Good. This is how the same Manichean myth is born, where the world is divided not according to reality, but according to the convenience of the cult.

And there is no longer a question why this is the religion of the Antichrist. Because, using Christian symbols, she rejects the very essence of the Christian faith. We will repeat again, because it is very important. In this cult, God ceases to be a Person and turns into an energy system, an "emitter of grace", which the hierarchs dispose of, as magicians dispose of spells. And in the place of Christ is put a state that requires worship, obedience and periodic blood offerings.

Thus, the "Russian world" is finally revealed as a religion, but an inverted religion, anti-Christian at its core: it is the cult of the state idol, decorated with church paraphernalia, and the deified collective ego, which pretends to be the light, but questions the darkness.

And here we come to the most amusing moment: attempts to protect the arch-priest of this religion. Where the system itself consists of contradictions, patches and magical fantasies, there will always be someone who will assure that "there is no heresy." This is where the real comedy begins — because one can defend a false teaching without recognizing it as a false teaching, only if one has already drowned in its own logic.

In attempts to save the reputation of his arch-priest V.M. Gundyaev.protodeacon all Horde, Comrade Kuraev, gave another pearl: they say, you can't call him a heretic, because "Russian peace is not a heresy." And here it is difficult to decide what sounds preposterous - the argument or the confidence with which it is pronounced. If the ideology of the "Russian world" has all the features of a religion, including its own priests, "dogmas", cult and eschatology, then anyone who tries to combine it with Christianity automatically becomes a heretic. At least hang the ego with textbooks on apologetics.

But critics of the "theology of the Russian world" continue to circle around the same reproach: chaos, lack of system, eclecticism. Yes, it is. This is not a neat religion, but a religious analogue of the ideology itself - the same gluey, snot-shaking constructor, posing as "conciliar theology". In fact, this is the same ideological chewing gum, but wrapped in conversations about the supernatural and decorated with references to Revelation, which, by the way, none of the preachers clearly read more than two lines.

The majority of observers point to the "multiplicity of voices", "contradiction", "variety of authors". Archimandrite Kirill Hovorun brilliantly compared it to the bag of Santa Claus, from which everyone pulls out what he thought was brilliant. But even this comparison is too merciful. Because there are no gifts in this bag, but a set of random rattles, rusty bolts and forgotten mothball ideas, which every "theologian" of the Russian world, with the guise of a prophet, passes off as the central truth.

Therefore, the logic of criticism here always runs into absurdity: if you say that element A is absurd, there will immediately be a fan who is sure that A is the main pillar of the "Russian world". But at exactly the same second, another will appear, convinced that A is a terrible heresy worthy of excommunication. And then a dozen of the same adepts who do not understand what we are talking about will come running, but they know one thing: "Russia is holy, the rest is secondary".

A textbook example is the attitude towards the USSR. For some it is darkness and a satanic system, for others it is a holy, pure era, a source of strength, and for others it is simply a decorative element that can be woven into any discussion to give it "depth". This is how an ideology is born, which cannot be systematically criticized because there is no system. There is chaos masquerading as dogmatics.

We will add to this the intellectual level of the majority of church speakers of the "Russian world". Many of them would not be able to defend a diploma even in a correspondence Bible school. Take the same archpriest Andrey Lemeshonka, a preacher from Minsk, a man who would hardly have written his graduation thesis in the seminary without the help of "angelic guidance" and three roommates. His words are a collection of slogans retold from posters, decorated with random quotes unrelated to the topic, and seasoned with the obligatory dose of conspiracy theory. The result is not a sermon, but something like a religious stand-up, only without jokes and with megalomania.

That is why criticism of the "Russian world" should address not the "dogmas" (there are none), but the very structure of thinking behind this cult - primitive, hysterical, and initially anti-religious.

If you try to analyze the practical expression of this quasi-religion, it becomes obvious: the cult of war in the "Russian world" is not a side effect, but a key function. And it's not a matter of "patriotism" (which has degraded to a reflex), but the fact that any occult system requires regular feeding. In this case, the blood of the Ukrainian people.

War for this religion is a sacred action necessary to confirm one's own "chosenness". After all, if you have declared yourself the last bastion of good, then any neighbor will inevitably turn into an embodiment of evil, and every bullet will serve a higher purpose. This is not just Manichean logic - this is its patho-anatomical edition. Here, a person is not left with a choice: he is either an "angel with a machine gun" or a "demon" worthy of destruction. The gray zone does not exist as a concept.

For the same reason, death in war is declared a "sacrifice", comparable to a liturgical act. The priest of this religion, Savva (Tutunov), who automatically calls himself a "bishop", argues about this as if he were quoting not the Gospel, but some mixture of the "Manichean epistle to field commanders" and instructions for the disposal of soldiers.

But the most telling thing is how this "theology of war" grows into everyday magical thinking. People live like the characters of a cheap horror film: they are surrounded by "conspiracies", "powers of darkness", "the influence of Satanists", "signs of the antichrist", "the fallen world" - and therefore they constantly need a new charge of "grace-gasoline". This makes religious life what it should not be: a series of magical procedures to protect against omnipresent evil.

There has been no connection with Christianity here for a long time. There is a religion of fear. Moreover, fear is so total that it becomes the driver of everything - from geopolitics to everyday habits.

From this, a practical magical system is born: if the world around is a battlefield between two cosmic principles, then any action can be justified by a "higher goal". Murders become "sacrifice", lies - "informational defense", robbery - "reclamation of what belongs to us", and wars - "exorcism" of territory.

This is how a cult is formed, where morality does not exist, becauseit is replaced by black magic. Where human life is devalued, because it is not the personality that is important, but the flow of sacred fuel. Where the state is deified, and God is turned into the service of technical support of this state.

And, as in any occult system, the main requirement is continuous war. After all, without a "space enemy" the structure instantly crumbles. Therefore, the "Russian world" does not need peace and is not profitable. He is dangerous. Peace, or rather peace according to God's laws, is the end of their religion.
