That's true that Stalin allowed religions during the WWII, but later Krushchev started repressions again.
Answer Catholic Bishops are not allowed to marry
They're allowed to have sex.
In the orthodox church of Christianity , it is allowed to get a divorce.So, yes they can.
The best may is allowed to be non-Orthodox. This is because Orthodox weddings do not actually include a best man. The tradition of best man is a Western one, so because it is not an Orthodox tradition, the best man is allowed to be non-Orthodox.

Russian Orthodox, other forms of Christianity, and Islam are the biggest ones. There are a lot of non-practicing believers and non-believers because of 7 decades of Soviet rule. and to add on protestants and hugeonots were widely spread among russia
Yes.
As a matter of fact, they do, though some choose to make a vow of celibacy. Priests are allowed to marry. It is their choice. Bishops however, if I'm not mistaken, are the only ones that take the vow of celebacy. Yes monks too, but they are not clergy.
Yes - but in a roundabout way. If the woman remains a Catholic, she will not even be allowed to be ordained a deacon or priest let alone a bishop, as in the Roman Catholic Church ordination of women is not allowed. However, if the woman left the Catholic Church altogether and became a member of the Anglican Church (which includes the Episcopalians in the USA), then women can and do become ordained deacons and priests and in some Anglican churches (especially the African Churches) are also allowed to become bishops. Recently, the Church of England, the 'mother Church' of the Anglican communion, has been debating the ordination of women bishops as a natural progression from the ordination of women priests which was passed in the 1990s. It has now been accepted but, as yet, no women bishops have been appointed.
No. Bishops are not allowed to be married and the pope is a bishop.
No one allowed it to happen. They took over during the Russian revolution.
