When it was known Russia was passing a discriminatory law regarding the LGBT community, it sounded too much like the spread of Christian Evangelical dogma through political systems. Rachel Maddow found a link between the Russian movement and a religious organization called, "World Congress of Families." (click here) It all started to come together. But, I took further.
The Evangelicals aren't conspirators, they are a movement, albeit, a movement of hate, but a movement just the same.

In the USA there is suppose to be separation of church and state. It has been watered down by the Robert's Court. But, when one looks at the way Americans were indoctrinated into a Culture of Fear, I had to ask myself why. There was the obvious Wall Street reasons of greed as with Vietnam; but; was it the only reason if I am to believe there is a religious political movement to tie government to the promotion of religious dogma.
In the USA there was an organization known only as "The Family" that provided special treatment to Republicans in Congress.
"The Family Foundation" (click here) is located in Virginia and provides substantial fellowships to those that seek it. Abraham Vereide founded the organization in 1935 as well as "The National Prayer Breakfast." He was well known to people such as Billy Graham and rubbed elbows with political leaders on a regular basis. He founded Goodwill Industries. He died in 1969 and would not consent to the "The Family" as it exists today.
In 2008, the year it was fairly obvious the Republicans were going to lose their grip on the USA, there was a book published. It was written by Jeff Sharlet.
Jeff Sharlet told NBC News that when he was an intern with the Fellowship "we were being taught the leadership lessons of Hitler, Lenin and Mao" and that Hitler's genocide "wasn't an issue for them, it was the strength that he emulated."

The troubling realization of the growing discrimination in Russia and the link to extremists Christians is too spooky. Let me propose a 'dynamic' that could be instilled in a culture strong enough to drive the politics of a nation. It was not long ago NGOs were being regarded as trouble by the Russian government.
Iraq was a war of choice. What if an NGO went into a First World Communist nation with the idea that fear of the USA, as demonstrated in reality, by parking missiles at Russian borders, causing nuclear escalation with North Korea and Iran, ignoring the tragedies and deaths by the Polish government and the new nations backed by the Russian government, could actually bring about war; would the naive believe that was possible unless they converted to a Christian god that pleased the USA?
Now, to be fair to the then President Bush, he stated openly that Muslims were not the problems, but, the Islamic Fascists were. So, in a back handed way that only Bush could state, he was attempting to mitigate hatred. But, for a nation, the only Superpower to be angry all the time and seek war and conflict all the time is a strange posture for the USA.
What allows NGOs into a sovereign nation? I am not talking United Nations. Either an invitation or war.
...The NGO Coordination Committee for Iraq, (click here) or NCCI, is an independent initiative that was launched by a group of NGOs present in Baghdad in April 2003. At the time of inception, the 14 original members focused on establishing a base for objective aid coordination, highlighting intervention priorities and optimizing aid responses in Iraq. NCCI’s activities eventually evolved in accordance with the changing situation in Iraq, and in turn the organization developed into a comprehensive forum where NGOs can exchange information regarding humanitarian activities and policy decisions in Iraq....
For an organization of NGOs to thrive immediately after the March invasion by the USA is astounding and is not a mistake or coincidence.
