About Old Believers: Russian Christian Orthodox Fundamentalists or Old Believers, or more correctly, Old Ritualists are Orthodox Christians who adhere to the service books and ritual of the Russian Orthodox Church prior to the reforms made to those books and services by the Russian Orthodox Patriarch Nikon beginning in the year 1653. Opponents of the ecclesiastical reforms of Nikon emerged among all strata of the people and in relatively large numbers. The Old Believers fiercely rejected all innovations, and the most radical amongst them maintained that the official Russian Church had fallen into the hands of theAntichrist. The State church anathematized both the old rites and books and those who wished to stay loyal to them. From that moment, the Old Believers officially lacked all civil rights. The State church had the most active Old Believers arrested, and executed many of them some years later in 1682. After 1685 a period of persecutions began, including both torture and executions. Many Old Believers fled Russia altogether. However, Old Believers became the dominant denomination in manyRussian regions, including North and Siberia.Before the Russian Revolution in 1917 there were probably more than 20 million Old Believers located throughout the Russian Empire and in Diaspora, but now after nearly a century of Communist persecution and simple secularization of Russian people, that number probably does not exceed 2 million. Old Ritualists are known for their strict adherence to the practices of the Russian Orthodox Church as it existed prior to Patriarch Nikon. Additionally, Old Ritualists have preserved ancient customs, traditional way of life, ancient clothes of Old Russia, natural rural economy, ancient form of church prayer singing, known as Znamenny Chant, that continues to draw the attention of other Orthodox Christians, as well as scholars and historians.

Russian Christian Orthodox Old Believers confidently speak about themselves: \"Orthodoxy means right teaching, correct doctrine. Orthodox Christianity is the true doctrine of Christ. When Orthodoxy came to the Slavic lands, the term was rendered as pravoslavie – right glorification, which fits the importance attached to worshipping God in beauty as well as in truth. Christianity is concerned with man\'s salvation from evil. The belief of the mind and the praise of the lips would be hollow if not joined to virtue. And so, true belief and true worship must bear fruit in right conduct, good morals and righteous actions. In Orthodox Christianity, man\'s mind, soul and body are elevated and ennobled to rise above the merely mundane and to lead what one writer has given as the very definition of Orthodoxy: new life in the Holy Spirit.\"Now it is still possible to meet this people in remote parts of Russia, mostly in Siberia.
