The Patriarch invited to celebrate June 12 birthday of Alexander Nevsky
 

"Perhaps the birthday of Alexander Nevsky will be celebrating the June 12" - the patriarch said Sunday at a reception in the diocesan administration of Kaliningrad with the Governor of the Kaliningrad region Georgy Boos.

According to him, to feast on June 12 in the nation there is a fairly critical attitude, because in his time this holiday called Independence Day.

"From independence? If from Kiev, I am against such independence," - said the Russian Orthodox Church.

Alexander Nevsky was born on 30 May (6 June) 1221 so that on June 12 nor there nor here. As for the Independence Day, everyone decides it is independent from anyone.

Vanished news.
 

Cases neighborhood for there the holidays I honestly do not care, In surprise news that the newly elected patriarch of a sudden holiday and not bothered by severe budnyami.I mention of Ukraine in the context of independence which is so set against the Kremlin's confessor flock here - in Ukraine. Moreover, these statements coincided with some of the events in Odessa - SBU actions aimed at clarifying the funding of local fascists pro Rodina party led by a certain Markov - the delegates are elected Cyril.
Another interesting fact is that the message of the initiative suddenly disappeared from the news groups.

VYACHESLAV,, let us not discuss and condemn the clergy. Because of the terrible court (if it happens) with them will be asked 100 times stronger than with all of us.
Subject patriarch Cyril already been discussed and the views koordinalno opposite.
And on the occasion of June 12, let him and call him in honor of Alexander Nevsky ... although in the history apart from him-a lot of worthy characters.:)
