Alexander Men
30 books15 followersAlexander Vladimirovich Men (Russian: Александр Владимирович Мень) was a Russian Orthodox priest, theologian, Biblical scholar and writer.
Men wrote dozens of books (including his magnum opus, History of Religion: In Search of the Way, the Truth and the Life, the seventh volume of which, Son of Man, served as the introduction to Christianity for thousands of citizens in the Soviet Union); baptized hundreds if not thousands; founded an Orthodox Open University; opened one of the first Sunday Schools in Russia as well as a charity group at the Russian Children's Hospital. His influence is still widely felt and his legacy continues to grow among Christians both in Russia and abroad. He was murdered early on Sunday morning, 9 September 1990, by an ax-wielding assailant just outside his home of Semkhoz, Russia.

В принципе, очень годно. Иногда заносит на православных поворотах и ЭСВ, но по делу весьма интересно. И в кой-то веки хоть один из более-менее современных православных деятелей сказал, что наука и религия никоим образом друг другу не противоречат.
Приложение, касающееся Коперника стоит прочитать всем воинствующим атеистам, чтобы понять, где научная парадигма и злые нравы, а где церковная догма и инквизиция.
