Imagine putting an image of a nun on a "hot-holy matrix."

"In the 1990s and later, it was criticized by some representatives of the Russian Orthodox Church for ecclesiastical modernism and ecumenism, which was initially largely due to the perception of Metropolitan Kirill as one of the disciples and successors of the work of Metropolitan Nicodemus (Rotov). , as well as the liturgical features he practiced, which the conservative part of the Church associated with Renovationism: the liturgical reading of the Holy Scriptures in Russian translation, the reading of "secret prayers" loudly, the selective "Russification" of ordinals, and so on.

Since the second half of the 1990s, Metropolitan Kirill has tried to present himself as an enlightened patriot and champion of traditional values. As a result, the socio-political assessment of him in the secular media in the 2000s is completely different: he is called "the leader of Russian neoconservative thought", the restorer of the Moscow-Third Rome idea. He began to be regarded by society as a politician and one of the likely candidates for the Patriarchal Throne"
