Darwin to be removed in Russia.

The Russian Church urges evolution be scrapped in schools.

Looks like another of your scarce stories with a tendentious title for the thread which even the article doesn’t claim.

It merely says “right now it’s impossible to say that it won’t be seriously considered.” And you yourself summarised it as that it something that the Orthodox Church “urges” (though in fact it seems to be an extremist priest with a bee in his bonnet about it).

I imagine any such move would be strenuously opposed by the Russian Academy of Sciences.

I am not sure that it is the official theology of Orthodox Christianity that Darwin’s theory of the evolution of species is to be rejected (any more that Roman Catholicism teaches thus) but you’re the expert here on Orthodox Christianity. So perhaps you can throw some light on this.

Ps. Do you want to change the title of this thread to something like: “Not impossible that removing Darwin from Russia might be considered”.
