Spiritual Christianity
Spiritual Christianity is the group of belief systems held by so-called heterodox ethnic Russians, folk Protestants, including non-Eastern Orthodox indigenous faith tribes and new religious movements that emerged in the Russian Empire. Their origins are varied: some come from Protestant movements imported from Europe to Russia by missionaries, travelers and workers; others from dissatisfaction with the perceived misbehavior of Orthodox priests, still others from the Bezpopovtsy Raskolniks. Those influences, mixed with indigenous folk traditions, resulted in communities of heretics that are collectively called sektanty. Such communities were typically documented by Russian Orthodox clergy with a label that described their heresy such as not fasting, meeting on Saturday (sabbatarians), rejecting the spirit, body mutilation (castigators), self-flagellation, or suicide.
