State atheism needs a reassessment of its Importance level, as it has little to do with atheism and is instead an article about anti-theist/anti-religious actions of governments.

Is this true?[edit]

See poll here concerning Pussy Riot case, surely most Russians aren't secular or they wouldn't have approved of this - http://www.levada.ru/31-07-2012/rossiyane-o-dele-pussy-riot

Please add Russian analysis of the personhood of god[edit]

Is personhood more fundamental than the Universe?
Can a person (for example god) be shaped without an environment?
Information theory doesn't apply to the thinking process of god?

Add specific links of Russian atheists and theists.
We should make a specific page named: The personhood of god as examined by Russian scholars
It's not weird to be analytical about a specific field of study.
It's weird and improper to be lazy. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:587:4114:6100:8488:4981:EF3C:463D (talk) 10:36, 11 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

YOU do it. Go to WP:AFC and prepare a summary that cite some professionally-published mainstream academic or journalistic sources. Ian.thomson (talk) 10:47, 11 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Excuse me, what?[edit]

So the article states that "At least as of 1899, it was not allowed to have any religion". This doesn't make any sense. In fact, the contrary is true, i.e. is was banned to voluntarily leave Orthodox Christinaty, the state religion. This mistake should be corrected. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.180.47.145 (talk) 09:37, 14 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
