    He has been calling the USA immoral. Most likely part of that.

    Interesting times we're leaving in when the president of Russia shows more support (ostensibly, at least) for the traditional family than does the president of the USA. This isn't the first time I've heard/read Putin defending traditional culture and warning about it's downfall in the west.

    Putin is trying to detract attention from his incursions into other people's territories and his military probes of the West. Look at how many people he has murdered in Russia.

    Got proof he's doing all this . . . unprovoked? I'd like to see it. Provide it for us.

    And no accusing me of being a "Putin lover" again isn't proof. It's a conditioned response.

    Sorry, I think I was probably agreeing with you.

    Is America an immoral nation? How many professed Christians are there 50% to 60%, yet we slaughter how many unborn children, idol worship is rampant (hollywood, sports, etc.), professing Christians celebrate alternative lifestyles, etc.?
