That's a Communist martial art. Definitely not Christian.

I only know what I've seen on YouTube, which is not much, but didn't it come from Spetznaz? Seems commie enough?

Story I head was that it was adapted from folk Russian martial arts for use by Spetsnaz. Some practitioners now want to associate it with deeper Russian and Orthodox roots. How accurate this is, I don't know, but it seems plausible that it predates the USSR.

A lot of the stuff I've seen in YouTube is all about gun grabs, which seems unlikely to predate communism.

Maybe there isn't just much of a market for Systema videos about the use of the whip, which is a traditional weapon in the art.
