Nuclear Orthodoxy
Nuclear Orthodoxy (Russian: Атомное православие, romanized: Atomnoye pravoslaviye), also sometimes referred to as Atomic Orthodoxy, is a Russian eschatological political concept which believes that Russia must build up its military, particularly its nuclear arsenal, in order to prepare for the Second Coming. First conceived in the aftermath of the dissolution of the Soviet Union, Nuclear Orthodoxy has become an integral part of the ideology of the Russian Orthodox Church and an important part of Putinism.
