Soviet and domestic policy. The
church could be more than a mor
ale building factor in war. It coulo
be mrfde to serve the Soviet
Union's expansionist policy in the
Balkans, where "Holy Russia" (a;
symbolized by the revival of Orth
odoxy) would have a greater ap
peal than "Red Russia,"
The effect of the return of the*
Orthodox Church to virtually ful!
freedom and prestige in Russia,
so thought Stalin and his Com
munist henchmen, shoi ld ease ten
sions within the United Nations.
Pertaining to the given situations
I quote Miconcv, who said ‘ Our
new religious policy will be valu
able in meeting the anti-Soviet re
bukes of the Roman Catholics,
I.utherans and other religious
troups . , , We have a chance to
drijv the Orthodox Church in
other ccuntrips closer to Russia
•ind make Moscow the 'Third
Rome' , , , ”
For all the preceding practical
'urposes, the Orthodox Church ij
the spiritual mouthpiece of the
Soviet policy, which the other
churches give varying degrees of
=anction, ranging from parroting
the Kremlin's prcp-anda to being
practically irrelevant.
Ayhat are the future pfospects
•'f religion in U.S.S.R.? To this, 1
ince again quote Miconov, when
’'e says, "Don t worry about the
r.ew generation being spoiled by
religious superstitions . , . ifc
clear to everyone that a young
man with religious inclinationr
'’."'n t possibly make a career. The
Komsomols, you may be sure, will
be a EtDJnger toice than the
priests.”
Obviously, the church in Russia
‘S tolerated, not privileged. The
communist belief is that the
[church, like all other social forces,
must be liquidated, neutralized, or
made subservient to the totali
tarian state.
