Re:Russia - Orthodox Baptism?? Date Posted:12/21/2022 10:39:17Copy HTML I could be wrong... but. it seems to be just an ice bath. If it were baptism, one would assume there would be a religious officiant. |

Re:Russia - Orthodox Baptism?? Date Posted:12/22/2022 06:10:46Copy HTML A quick bit of google research suggests this is not baptism but an orthodox celebration of Epiphany, where believers dunk themselves three times in ice cold waters as a symbol of being cleansed from their sins.
There is no obvious religious officiant present as the water is blessed beforehand.

Aside from the content of the article, here’s an additional personal perspective from me: The fact that some of the young women are wearing thongs and no-one seems to care goes to show how cultural our responses to thongs can be. Wearing thongs has nothing to do with religion and faith, though context can clearly make a difference: here it doesn't, but in some other cultures it would. |

Re:Russia - Orthodox Baptism?? Date Posted:12/23/2022 04:28:46Copy HTML In the summer of 2022 I went to a beach where a Church group was having a social event and a couple of young women, one in a v-string were laying out. No one said anything of those and other women in thongs but plenty of looks from the married men. |
