I recall reading something about this a few months ago. From what I gathered, this fringe who wants Stalin [I won't even type it, but you get the drift], are somehow also tied in with the white supremacists in Russia. Strange reasoning indeed! Hatred truly does cloud one's judgement.

Dear Friend,
the link between the two is not hate (in first lieu), IT'S MATERIALISM.
We are not materialist, because we are Christians.
"They" are.
Indeed a branch of religious judaism is materialist too, and remember the saducees...
As you can see, ones are biologial materialists and the others economical materialists.
In the Lord,
Giorgos

""ELDER CLEOPA ILIE (or the Romanian Patriarchate)
ELDER SERAPHIM ROSE ""
A couple of months ago I was talking to a man about Optina monastery and how in a certain cell there are the Icons of each individual elder recognized by Optina, and in this cell the very loast included Fr.Seraphim
Rose of blessed memory from Platina Ca.............apparently at a certain time in there history they were being persecuted and had all there Spiritual books( and maybe service books too,I could be wrong)they started getting Fr.Seraphim and Fr.Herman`s -THE ORTHODOX WORD booklets, and this elder said that for many years all they ever had was these little books to get them thru many years, and for that they gave thanks to God for allowing Fr.Seraphim to be of Service and although so far away, in spirit was like a brother right there the whole time of this persecution,reminding the elders of even some of there own Lives.............................
