Суд над Бхагавад-гитой / Attempt to ban Bhagavad-gita

I find this attempt to ban the Bhagavad-gita by the Russian Government nothing more than religious intolerance and ignorance. As a professor I teach Bhagavad-gita As it is, at both Arkansas State University in Mountain Home, AR, and at Florida Vedic College. It is moral crime to label the Bhagavad-gita, which is a religious and philosophical classic as an extremist literature. In Arkansas which is in the middle of the Bible belt of America, the teaching of Bhagavad gita is going on without any conflict with the christian majority. Perhaps the Russian government should go back to establishing that the planets revolve around the earth, which was the Christian dogma for centuries and hundreds of philosophers were executed to propagate the Christian world view, in this way they can show the world their real extremist agenda of religious intolerance.
