Father Daniil and Father Vladimir were shot as the distinguished members of Russian Federation. Now they are the holy martyrs of the state of Russians. This is the trajectory from the bullet to – peoples’ voice, the cross-section of two cultures! We all have as much value as much we face it.

I am horrified by this crime. I could not think of an act much worse. Please God the police will catch this vile perpitrater.

Thanks to RT for showing this story, the media here has not and likely will not be mentioned at all. Whatever the motive clergy of any faith should not be targeted.

May Christ be with both. Freedom of speech, and the criticism of Islam must be uphold. We all know that Islam is intolerant, and that such crimes are derived from the very principles that Muhammad taught his followers. The wild beast must be tamed.

I`m an atheist, and I really dont like organized religion, but this murder is of course horrible. Maybe it was some sort of a satanist, who are filled with even more hate that most other religious people in this world (as I see it) get pumped into their head by religious systems. Hope the police finds the murderer, but lets hope he dont turn out to belong to some other big religious group, like Islam. That would have the potential to spark a lot of hate...
