The Peoples' Opium?

After 70 years of the suppression of Christian faith in Russia, people are turning to a bizarre blend of the traditional and the trendy. The Russian Orthodox Church vies with astrology and New Age teaching for the attention of the devout, the disillusioned and the desperate. In Shelkovo, a small community outside Moscow, Everyman asks why faith is in fashion.
