Prince Vladimir is venerated by Catholics also.

When did Vladimir convert to the Christianity?

Giles Fletcherwrites about this fact[69]. The author was in Russia in 1588. He writes that according Polish legends Vladimir was converted to Christianity in 990, but at that time Russian own legend told about 1300.

On the basis of the monuments and graves dates[70], one can conclude that the baptism was in the XII-XIII centuries.

Schaveliyeva N.I. in her book "Ancient Rus` in thePolish historyby  Jan Długosz" demonstrated, that Prince Vladimir lived in the XIII century.

Conclusion:The chronicles were most likely amended with late insertion, that the baptism came from the Greeks.

 This was necessary, in order to create basis for correction of Russian books after (per samples of) the Greek ones, which had, allegedly, the unchanged content, but Russian ones were, allegedly, spoiled.

But we already know, that Jesuits replaced Arian sacred books with Latin ones in Greece in the XVII century.

The Schism (Raskol)

Samuel Collins[71]wrote:

"Now the reigning Emperor is called Alexei Mikhailovich Romanov, i.e. Alexei, the son ofMichael, Roman (the Roman)».

At the time of Alexei Mikhailovich the church schism happened. By the way, we should note, that the prospective tsar Alexei began to study at the age of five and studied the Horologion, the Psalms and the Acts[72]. And where is the Gospel and the complete Bible? Or at that time it didn`t exist?

Melnikov-Pechersky[73], the writer and the journalist, speaking about the schism, said about difficulties in understanding this phenomenon:

Raskol (Schism) and raskol`niki (schismatics) "is one of the most interesting phenomenon in the historical life of the Russian people. But this phenomenon remains unexplored properly, although it has been existing longer than two centuries. Neither the administration, nor the society do not know in whole and in details, what is the schism. Even more: nine-tenths of the schismatics themselves are not completely aware of the split as it is ...

Yes, we must frankly confess, that in the continuation of two hundred years, neither Russian administration nor Russian literature did almost nothing to clarify the subject, dark object, not loving light and also, by coincidence, put into the darkness of secrecy for a long time.

Now, when we have finally passed through both terrible time of fires, and the strange time of mystery, and dark time of scholastic disputes about the fingers bending and walking clockwise, now when all this is acknowledged as sad and failed attempts to destroy the schism, now westill know about it not more, than our fathers and grandfathers knewat the time of the terrible fires.

We are even less aware then them, because we have moved away from the common people, more than they had. Meanwhile …. Russian people thirst to clarify this subject, ardently desires to be finallyexplainedto with method of all-lightning analysisabout this mysterious phenomenon, affecting dozens of millions Russian people and more than hundred thousand people in Prussia, Austria, the Danube principalities, Turkey, Asia Minor, Egypt and maybe even Japan".

We see, nobody realized two hundred years after the schism, what was the reform of the Church, combined with such terrible consequences, both for the state as a whole, and for millions Russian people. What were the motives of the authorities, both secular and ecclesiastical, forced to make such sacrifices. Even the schismatics do not understand, what was the schism, but the government keepssecret.

Now We understand, that complex of reforms carried out by Romanovs (Roman) captured power in Russia, was aimed at the destruction of native Russian Vedic faith, Christianity (Arianism) associated with it, and implanting Christianity in Catholic rendition, archly called Orthodoxy to calm down the believers.

And all this was carried out under the guise of church literature correction with help of Greek hierarchs, who sold themselves to Catholics, and Kiev henchmen, who surged to Moscow after Ukraine joined the Moscow Tsardom.

On the role of the Greeks and natives of Kiev in organizing schism.

Issue about the Greek and Kiev hierarchs and theologians, has been  already consecrated by us in the previous chapters.

We can add to it the opinion of the priest Joahn Lukyanov, who visited Istanbul[74]:

"The Latins took away books from Orthodox Greeks and burned them. After that the books were re-published in "Latin countries", but with " heretical corrections". Metropolitan Theophan wrote about is in 1645 to Russian Tsar Alexey Mikhailovich. "

It is believed, that the main inspirer of Nikon's reforms in the Russian Church, according his own admission, was the eastern patriarchAthanasius III Patellarios (Alexios Patellarios, Athanasius III of Constantiniple), who was, the supporter of Latin faith according to professor Evguéni Schmurlo. The following inspirers and the staff of Nikon were not better Athanasius.

Fedor Melnikov[75]writes:

"Nikon arranged business of books correction by deception and forgery. He convened Council in Moscow in 1654, where liturgical books were decided to be corrected according ancient Russian and ancient Greek manuscripts[76]. In fact, the Nikon`s correctors corrected booksaccording new Greek books, written in Jesuit printing houses in Venice and Paris."

At the Council of 1666-1667 Paḯsios Ligarídis,cunning Jesuit,wheeled and dealt with everything, who required correction of old books.

Further, the author points out: "... the influence of ex-inhabitants of Kiev grew up strongly in Moscow by that time. Malorossia (Rus' Minor)joined to Muscovy, and a great number of South Western monks, teachers, politicians and other dealers came to Moscow. They all were strongly infected with Latinism. They gained great importance at the court of tsar.

The influence of the Western trends was getting stronger in governmental circles and among entourage of Tsar, and at this timePaḯsios Ligarídisconducted serious negotiations withRome about uniting the Russian Church with the Latin. He bowed the Eastern patriarchs to it also. Russian bishops obeyed the tsar in everything ... In order to make devout Russian people to adopt a new faith and new books,Council blessed to torment persons, who  disobey decrees of Council, with the gravest punishments:to imprison them, to exile, to beat with beef tendons, to cut off ears, noses, to cut tongues, to cut off the hands and the like. "

It is known, that Arseny Sukhanov was sent by the tsar and Nikon to the East and after return from there described everything seen in "Proskynitárion", including description ofAthos monks burning books of the Moscow printing.

This is a very sad fact, that the Greek orthodox Christians and Athos monks by that time refused of the ancient faith, and danced to the tune of the Latins.

People said: "The Poles and Roman kostel (church), by the hand of the God`s enemy, Nikon, want to dissent and put into darkness the Russian land."

At the same time, to stop old procedures of service everywhere, Nikon ordered to take away old booksin all the parishes urban and rural.

The elite looked at these events with indifference. - As always

The role of the Jews

Examining the works of Russian theologians, you do not find out from them about the role played by Jews in the schism. But it is clear, that the Jews were behind the Catholics and their role in the schism was rather significant.
