Hey, Bill O'Reilly here. Welcome to the No Spin News for Monday, April 18, 2022. Stand up for your country.

Get a lot of, tell you about, Horoldo is going to be on tonight when I talk about his charity Immigration and you'll remember the very, I don't know, I don't know what word to use. Maybe I'll ask Rivera.

But if you Google O'Reilly Rivera Immigration, one of the liveliest chats ever in the history of cable news will appear before your eyes.

So anyway, Horoldo is a woman up in a bullpen. I'll be here in a minute. The beginning of Holy Week for the Orthodox Christian world and that world is in big trouble.

That is the subject of this evening's talking points. Memories you know as we have reported. The head of the Russian Orthodox Church,

Kereal, Patriarch Kereal, supports Putin and Russian atrocities in Ukraine. Now how on earth is that possible? How could a man who oversees 101 million Christians in Russia support this invasion?

Do you think Jesus would support the invasion? I don't think so. And this is the problem with Christianity all over the world.

Now the surrounding countries also are in the Orthodox zone. They are Ethiopian, Africa, Ukraine, Ukraine is Orthodox, Romania, Greece and they have not one leader as the Roman Catholic Church has.

So the Greek Orthodox Church for example has another leader and he has condemned the Russian invasion but not Kereal whose Putin's buddy. But again 101 million Russian Orthodox.

So the Pope over the weekend thrown his statement up gives a annual Easter dress and he said quite clearly may there be peace for war to an Ukraine so sorely tried by the violence and destruction of the cruel and senseless war into which it was dragged.

This terrible night of suffering and death man knew dawn of hope soon up here. Now Pope Francis got criticized because he didn't name Putin and he didn't name Russia but that's not what the Pope does.

He does not want Roman Catholics who live in Russia to be persecuted the same thing with communist China. So he doesn't launch head on head attacks why would he?

But is clear that the Pope of the Roman Catholic Church feels rightfully that this is a violation of all Christian tenets but not the Russian Orthodox leader.

It's just really unbelievable. He said quote this is Kereal. All matters can be resolved with dialogue and understanding but never with violence. I'm sorry this is the Greek this is the Greek Orthodox guy.

Never with violence Greek Orthodox leader announced in his Easter address. Now Kereal he said put up what he said let the Lord help us unite during this difficult time for our fatherland including around the authorities.

Maybe authorities that's Putin be filled with responsibility for the people humility and readiness to serve them even across their life. What does that mean? What a gobly book is that? Okay. So now let's go to the wider picture.

Ukrainian civilian deaths about 2000 including about 200 children civilian injuries about 2700 including 252 children this comes from CBS news.

All right. Four million plus refugees all over Europe having to leave their homes cities destroyed yet the Russian Orthodox church leader is okay with it. So you are Thursday holy Thursday gave you the Christian stats.

All right. They're declining in the modern world they're actually going up in Africa but declining in most other places in the world and this is why. This is why now one final word and this is personal because it is the Orthodox holy week as I said Easter Sunday next is their celebration.

If I'm Kereal I got to be worried about judgment day when you think unless he's a total charlatan just in it for money and power which you may be.

But you can't justify what you're doing and here's the kicker if Kereal were to condemn Putin in the invasion Putin would have to withdraw. He'd have to he couldn't stand up to him.

Now Kereal might get shot in the head or poison but hey you know that's what martyr dumb is all about and that's the memory.
