Everything is linked to power. From the election in South Ossetia on Sunday to the facade of every religious building.
The South Ossetians received $1 billion from Russia last year and they have a base a military base in the country.
Of course people would be afraid.
If anyone who has ever had to call to a religious building, whether it is presbytery, a priory, a convent, a palace, all are impressive powerful buildings.
And such an interaction immediatley innevitably damages the relationship and of course the dice is on the side of the powerful.
Imagine a poor, inarticulate person engaging with the church? Almost impossible.
It's as glaring as that. The rest is tomfoolery.
