НЕИЗВЕСТНЫЕ АСПЕКТЫ ЦЕРКОВНОЙ И НАЦИОНАЛЬНОЙ ЖИЗНИ В ЦАРСКИЙ ПЕРИОД (1812-1918)

«Многажды побеждённые, много раз подчинённые, но никогда не склонённые до земли и никогда не лишённые надежды, глядим мы (на предводителей), начиная от 1366 и по 1688 год, опираясь на них во всех наших делах, чтобы очиститься в борьбе. Мирча чел Бэтрын, Влад Цепеш, Штефан чел Маре, Михай Витязул и Шербан Контакузино были, прежде всего, непримиримыми врагами сектантов Магомета, защищая кровью своею Святой Крест».

Так Михаил Когылничану, выступая 24 ноября 1843 года на открытии курсов Национальной Истории в Академии Михэйлене, напомнил молодым студентам о славных деяниях предков. По эту сторону Прута клад этот хранился в святости на протяжении долгих веков, продолжая сверкать по прошествии долгих времён и страданий. В первую очередь, благодаря православной вере, и во вторую очередь, благодаря патриотизму, которые, вместе взятые, образуют саму основу национального единства румын.

ESTE PASIBILĂ REPUBLICA MOLDOVA DE O EVENTUALĂ REVOLTĂ A TINERILOR?

(Notă: articol original publicat 
în data de 12 aprilie 2006)

Cu toţii am fost cîndva tineri. Unii continuă să fie tineri sufleteşte iar alţii din tinereţe devin mult mai maturi decît par. Pentru orice ţară, generaţia tînără reprezintă speranţa de viitor. Atît cît se investeşte în tineret tot atît şi se obţine.

La noi în ţară, în cadrul societăţii post-sovietice, de vreo zece ani s-au format nişte centre, putînd fi comparate doar cu nişte caste, care cumulează în jur lor politicieni, ziarişti, oameni de cultură, oameni de afaceri, oameni de ştiinţă şi chiar cadre teologice sau simpli muncitori pe de o parte iar pe de altă parte – tineretul. Între prima şi cea de a doua categorie de oameni, deşi se află în cadrul aceleiaşi societăţi, s-a format o prăpastie destul de mare. Procesele social-politice din ţară şi străinătate nu au rămas fără repercusiuni asupra tineretului, de altfel, sensibil la orice schimbări bruşte care se produc în urma intervenţiilor din interiorul şi exteriorul societăţii.

ON POLITICAL ORIENTATION OF OUR CHURCH

The media in Republic of Moldova is to blame for advising the last 10-15 years the population to give a political character to the church. The mainstream media is filled with comments suggesting it. To some degree, the national short-sighted politics individuals attained their aim. A loud example is the increasing number of sects and heresies. As per this people the Orthodox Church is a communist institution, which they are set to transform into a democratic one of western structure.

Almost one century ago, the Bishop Nicholai Velimirovich was engaged in the solving of such problem. Besides his activity as a Bishop, during World War First we see him as diplomat of Serbia in England, besides the political and religious missions he was a lecturer at the Oxford University (as well received his PHD in philosophy at the university’s King’s College). Here is what thoughts this great Hierarch, who was recently canonized, offers on the Christian community life:

While at the Cathedral “Naşterea Domnului” (the Nativity of Our Lord Jesus Christ) on the eve of the Dormition of the Mother of God has begin the Vigils, the counters in the middle of Chisinau, ignoring the fasting to end in few hours, has been busy with sale of all sort of delicious meats and dairy products.


At the Cathedral began the Vespers, while in the Square the blind demon of joy started to yell with a power of thousands of watts.

Valentine’s Day - neopaganism dimmed-out in Christian Tradition

Once the Soviet Union broke apart in the former communist countries imported some feasts from West, without knowing their real significance.

In Ancient Rome, February 14th was a holiday to honor Juno, Queen of the Roman Gods and Goddesses, the same day that had been devoted to love lotteries. During these times boys and girls were segregated. The girl’s names were written on pieces of paper and inserted into jars. Each boy then drew a girl’s name from the jar and they were partners throughout the Festival. On the Feast of Lupercalia was celebrated, also the feast of Pan, a pagan deity (who instills panic) some riotous celebrations, also associated with Aphrodite, the goddess of love and beauty (simply, a deity of petty desires) - worshiping them with a cult. It is proved that the feasts were celebrated with orgies and often culminating with sacrifices humans, attested in Latin and Greek writings.

METROPOLITANATE OF BASARABIA - THE SPOILS OF OCCULT POLITICS - I

It is already not surprising that some public leaders of the Republic of Moldova come on the scene, any time an occasion appears, to bring accusations and offences to the Orthodox Church in Moldova. We will further present you some activists involved in this betrayal act of authentic romanianism by denigrating our Ancestral Faith.

We will start by the Thursday issue, September 8, 2005 of the publication “Literatura si arta” (Literature and Art). Making praise to “the Metropolitan Antonie”, the editor of the weekly – Mr. Nicolae Dabija, surprises us by his knowledge of recent history and not only. For example “while he was delivering his speech (the Metropolitan Antonie – author comment), a group of students from the Faculty of Theology in Chisinau, stood up from their places and have demonstratively left the audience. It was the beginning of 1991, long before the reactivation of Metropolitanate of Basarabia. I was ashamed of those “guttersnipes in cassocks” says the authors, avoiding to mention that in 1991 the rector of this institution was Petru Buburuz – one of the today leaders of the “Metropolitanate of Basarabia”. I would also like to ask with all the respect where did Mr. Dabija hear that Moldovan or Russian priests “intoxicate them with arguments of the “the Romanian church is foreign to our nation; our church is those of all Russians.” kind. I am sorry to say that Mr. Dabija lies with boldness.

CHRISTIANS FROM MOLDOVA URGE YOU: DO NOT COMMIT THE BLASPHEMY AGAINST OUR SAVIOR

Yesterday Thursday, May 18, 2006 by about 5 o'clock in the afternoon about two hundred and fifty Christians had gathered in front of the cinema “Patria” as a way to express discontent toward the country’s political leaders who failed to show any reaction to the message of orthodox Christians from Moldova expressed on the part of the Metropolitanate regarding premiering of the movie in our country making blasphemy of our Savior. [1]  People of different age and social categories were  holding the placards bearing the following  inscription: “ To the Faithful Sons and Daughters of the Orthodox Church – let you oppose the effects of aberrations brought from the West”, “Betrayers of the Orthodoxy are the betrayers of our people”, “ Do not make our soul filthy” (etc.). They have expressed their indignation and protest toward the State  governing body who failed to show the negative reaction to what is going on today in the capital of our republic.

A number of priests from Chisinau as well priests from other parts of Moldova joined the protest actions. Later on vicar of the Metropolitanate of Chisinau and All Moldova – Petru joined also the protest actions in signs of solidarity. More than an hour he talked to the passers – by gathered around him explaining them the mistake they can make in case they allow blasphemy against our Savior.

MOLDOVAN SOCIETY AS COMPLICIT IN THE DEGRADATION OF CULTURE - I

Analysis of political and social evolution in our country shows things sometimes take a curious turn. Again the question of the religious life of the population living on the Prut River left bank is the most provocative. One may have objections to what is presented here, but conducting a thorough research of the recent events helped us drawing the right conclusion.

I should say from the very beginning the majority of personalities expressing publicly their attitude regarding various religious events that took place in rapid succession in our country have no idea what they're talking about. Though gained orthodox majority since the last census the events under discussion do not have that desirable impact on a simple citizen's or countryman's mind. And it's scandalous to allow the blockheads, having no idea even about Liturgy to express publicly their point of view on the scaffold - providing a multitude of resources and information for mass-media write about visible doctrinal aberrations upon Orthodoxy.
