Mikhail Gorbachev admits he is a Christian - Telegraph

One very interesting quote: "Mr Gorbachev's surprise visit confirmed decades of rumours that, although he was forced to publicly pronounce himself an atheist, he was in fact a Christian, and casts a meeting with Pope John Paul II in 1989 in a new light." He was 'forced'. Interesting that he was 'forced' to betray Christ yet his in-laws were martyrs for their faith dying in WWII for having icons in their home.
