Interesting. According to official statistics, 74% of Russian citizens consider themselves Orthodox Christians. Yet, this mini-survey indicates that out of 118 respondents, 61 (~52%) never read the Bible. The poster comments, "they believe in the ultimate power of the devil over the world, and in various pseudo-"magic" trash like sashes, "honorable chairs," etc.; and yet, there hardly is any room for our Lord and Savior in their pantheon." I agree; my personal experience of communication with some Russian clergy (!) is, too, that they hardly even mention Christ, while making abundant references to Holy Mother Russia being tormented by evil enemies like the West and especially the USA.
