Do you think Putin might be an Atheist?

My Dad has suddenly started hating on Putin to a crazy amount because he has caused chaos financially 😯 and also the war thing.

I looked Putin up and he has done other snake stuff too so is there a chance that he might be an Atheist?

Putin is Russian Orthodox

What would atheism have to do with his actions?

@anythingoes477 The problem with online discussions like this is that context is often lost. If I misunderstood the intention of your post, then I apologise.

The OP opened the gate with the assertion that Putin must be an atheist. NewJannine was pointing out the fallacy in that claim.

@anythingoes477 [quote]shows he is Christian[/quote]

That’s the No True Scotsman fallacy.

I'm an atheist but not a psychopath. Not sure you have a basis for correlation vs causality in this argument.
@OldBrit Christians generally don't. They've had their heads filled with lies about atheists for most of their adult lives.
Putin is an Orthodox Christian, and unlike his communist predecessors, has promoted religion. This includes the worst aspects, like encouraging violence against LGBT.

Putin wears a Christian cross at all times.

@ElwoodBlues why does he take his clothes of so much? Is he kinky?
@IndigoSavage I don't know why, but your guess is as reasonable as most.
@ElwoodBlues So does EVERY member of the Costra Nostra........eevn while killing someone else.

His "snake stuff" has nothing to do with his religious views -- he's just a egomaniacal sociopath.

He wouldn't be that bad, i mean i haven't seen him eat babies or anything.... probably just agnostic

Does it matter?

He's way beyond that. Anyone who uses their power and resources to cause death, destruction, and nightmares is the devil incarnate. If he is mortal he must be killed.

Putin probably thinks that God told him to invade, like He told Joshua, 3500 years ago?

@walabby hopefully not or he might kill 'every man, woman and child' 😲

Putin is cynically orthodox, but probably too intelligent to actually be religious.

@trackboy it sure looks like it's heading that way. Might want to have a few cases of beer stashed away just in case.

When there was a communist party and he was a member, I assume, he would nominally have been atheist. But, seems like others have done research!
ChipmunkErnie · 70-79, M
@Human1000 Not sure, but I seem to remember when he first came to power he was very big on supporting the Russian Orthodox Church and restoring its power?
Human1000 · M
@ChipmunkErnie Yeah, I think that’s right. He is a cynical one, anything for power.

The only God Putin recognises is Putin and he communicates with him by tweaking his own nipples while wearing no shirt
Absolutely not. He has made it illegal to criticize the Russian Orthodox church, which is one of the things I hold against him.
@LordShadowfire He's made it illegal to shit....unless he OK's it. It's what dictators do.
