(Moscow) – Law enforcement authorities across Russia have dramatically escalated the nationwide persecution of Jehovah’s Witnesses in the past 12 months, Human Rights Watch said today. One year after President Vladimir Putin said that the crackdown against them should be “looked into,” the numbers of house raids and people under criminal investigation have more than doubled, and 32 Jehovah’s Witnesses worshipers are behind bars for peacefully practicing their faith.
At least 313 people are facing charges, are on trial, or have been convicted of criminal “extremism” for engaging in Jehovah’s Witnesses’ activities,
Courts convicted 18 people in 2019, nine of whom received prison sentences ranging from two to six years, for such activities as leading or participating in prayer meetings. Verdicts are expected in several cases later in January.

I understand the Russian approach and urge that it be considered here. The reason is that these people directly mislead Christians in the hopes of getting tithes out of them. This is no different from some con-man trying to sell you the Brooklyn Bridge.
There is one form of True Christianity ™ and that is found at Landover - the rest are misguided social clubs lead by charlatans.
