The People of Russia as God's Chosen People (Excerpt of the book "The Union Moujik")

The Union Moujik



    “It appears God has made the people of Russia his chosen people by using us as an example. He presents us with the ideas that mankind should avoid. I think so, my dear friend.  It seems as if our job is to show the rest of the world the things that humans should not do. Strangely enough, the people of Russia go about doing that by hurting themselves. Look at our history. We have revealed to the world the shortcomings of division, the horrors of feudalism and despotism, the futility of dictatorship in the form of Stalinism, and the inner contradictions of Marxism-Leninism vis-à-vis the changing world. And who knows what else we are destined to show to the world tomorrow,” the Evenki had told Boris..
    The tomorrow he talked about turned out to be the today they were living in. Boris had no recollection of the man’s last name, but the face of the Evenki muzhik became imprinted on his mind forever. The fellow’s face was vivacious with traces of sadness on it as if he foresaw that the people of Russia would adopt capitalism too and contribute enormously in giving it a bad name...
