Russia has abolished God, but so far God has been tolerant.

Summary

This quote implies that Russia, as a country, has strayed away from religious beliefs and practices. However, despite this abandonment of God, there has not been any immediate divine retribution or punishment. It suggests that God has demonstrated tolerance towards Russia's decision to abolish religion, perhaps implying that no catastrophic consequences have occurred as a result. This quote might also reflect a critical perspective on the religious freedom or lack thereof in Russia. Overall, it captures the irony of a nation renouncing God, yet not facing immediate consequences for it.
