CAMPAIGN IN RUSSIA TO EXPELL FROM THE COUNTRY ALL JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES

The Russian president, mr. Putin said clearly that he only forbade the Watchtower organization, but that he had nothing against the PERSONAL faith of every Jehovah's Witness. The reality is proving that this man is a REDOMED HYPOCRITE.
Reportedly, the search for Jehovah's Witnesses by local authorities is forcing people to move to Finland and other European countries.

Religious persecution forces Jehovah's Witnesses to leave Russia.

Following the banning of the religious group by the Supreme Court of Russia, The Barents Observer reports that the members are being persecuted by the Russian security agency and the Russian National Guard.

On Friday, April 20, 2018, two Jehovah's Witnesses were arrested in a Russian city called Polyarny. They were arrested after raids in at least six places, according to the newspaper of the regional authorities, Murmanski Vestnik.
Incursions like this, followed by other forms of persecution, are forcing the members of the religious group to leave the country.

They started fleeing Russia in 2017. There are now around 1,000 Russians in Finland and other European countries.

According to Veikko Leininen, spokesperson for the section of Jehovah's Witnesses in Finland, "at least many dozens are coming".
Religious persecution in Russia

On April 20, 2017, the Russian Supreme Court banned Jehovah's Witnesses and officially branded them as an extremist organization.

The ruling also established that any Russian who discovered himself as a member would be imprisoned for six to ten years. A year has passed since the court's decision and things have gone from bad to terrible.

According to reports, 17 properties have been confiscated, while there are ongoing lawsuits to seize 52 other properties.

Jaroslav Sivulsky, representative of the European Association of Jehovah's Witnesses, says: "After the decision of the Supreme Court, there was an increase in religious intolerance in the country between March 15, 2017 and April 1, 2018 , the "European Association of Jehovah's Witnesses" received information, and it is far from complete, approximately 250 violations of the rights of believers, including attacks, vandalism, various types of discrimination, dismissals and I like it.

"... We know of 27 cases of vandalism, in most cases insulting insults, damage to the buildings where believers live or where divine services were previously celebrated, in 7 cases, significant damage was caused. 13 citizens reported that after the decision of the Supreme Court they were dismissed or forced to resign by their own will because of their religious beliefs. "

With this level of persecution, who can blame Jehovah's Witnesses for leaving Russia?

    • By the way, if you're into stuff like this, you might wanna check out https://thepythagoras.com/. They have some neat articles about ancient civilizations and their contributions to science and math. It’s really interesting how much we owe to these early thinkers.
    • The Dendera Zodiac is such an amazing piece of history. Imagine ancient Egyptians looking up at the same stars we do now and creating this detailed map. It's mind-blowing! So, what do I think about it? I think it's a fascinating blend of art and astronomy. Those ancient folks really knew their stuff. The way they incorporated their gods and mythologies into the constellations is just brilliant. And it's not just about the stars, it’s a glimpse into how they viewed the universe and their place in it.
    • FIFA's collaboration with Algorand represents a significant milestone for blockchain technology. Algorand will serve as the official blockchain platform for FIFA, supporting events such as the FIFA Women's World Cup in Australia and New Zealand in 2023 and the FIFA World Cup in Qatar in 2022. This partnership is poised to enhance FIFA's digital asset management while boosting Algorand's visibility through advertising and promotional opportunities. On another note, I've been tuning into African football recently. The match between Kanifing East FC and Latrikunda United was unexpectedly impressive. African football often goes underappreciated, yet the skill and enthusiasm in these matches are evident. We can expect even more significant development and excitement in African football with increased attention and support.
