    At the time, he believed Russia offered an attractive alternative: a society built on Christian faith and family values

        With that claim, I want to know the exact wording. Not because I don’t believe you, but because it’s a great meme!

          I’m not entirely sure in the war part, the bible does make it pretty clear the Abrahamic people are totes the best people, so I’m sure it’s in there. But there is a whole lot of breed like rabbits in there. It’s why Islamic and conservative/traditional christians make having babies a core part of their values.
