Did Joseph Stalin sponsor religious education in Saint Petersburg, Russia ?
That is impossible, because Stalin destroyed all religion that was present in the USSR, replacing it with his own cult of personality, where all people were supposed to see him as God. Staling not only didn’t sponsor any kind of religious organizations, but he in fact shut down most of the churches, if not all, and stopped the printing of Bibles in the USSR. Instead of Christianity, Stalin created numerous statues of himself and placed them all over the USSR, making the people worship himself. So, the final answer would be: Stalin NEVER sponsored any kind of religious organizations/affiliations and if he did, it would be a source of great shock.
