GUGARATS DIOCESE PRIMATE PERSUADES NOT TO CEDE TO PROVOKATING EVENTS
STORMING PUBLIC LIFE AND WANTING TO DISRUPT NATION
VANADZOR, MARCH 24, NOYAN TAPAN - ARMENIANS TODAY. "During the last
days, leaflets including threats with the Fascist swastika were spread
in the capital of the republic and in Vanadzor. The Armenian Church
and the Armenian people will never tolerate to turn our small
Fatherland into a stage of interreligious or interethnic or other,
arisen on the religious ground, violences by villain agents," is said
in the persuation of Bishop Sepuh Chuljian, the primate of the
Gugarats Diocese of the Armenian Apostolic Church the text of which
was submitted to Noyan Tapan by the diocesan services. His Holiness
himself has doubts that organizers of this provokation are from
Armenia. "Our people has tolerated the ethnic and religious minorities
for centuries, and the Church has showed fatherly attitude towards
them and often by a careful attitude of an advisor and guardian, has
undertaken a conciliatory role during both party and religious
misunderstandings," His Holiness Sepuh writes. The primate of the
Gugarats Diocese emphasizes that for every Armenian considering
himself Armenian both in Armenia and in the Diaspora, the Armenian
Church is a holy structure uniting the Armenian people, irrespective
of his party ideology or religious position: an atheist or
believer. "Display of the spirit of intolerance with similar threats
by religious movements having no relations with our national life, who
attempts to obstacle our spiritual and national peaceful and joint
life, driving a wedge in the affair of improvement of our statehood,
is inadmissible and unpardonable for us. Especially in the case, when
our newly independent republic attempts with great difficulties to
confront various social-economic and political difficulties," His
Holiness Sepuh says. He expresses an opinion that re-working out of
the law "On Human Rights and Freedom of Conscience" and its being
improved by corresponding legislative, sub-legislative and normative
acts and usage, by what similar negative events will be excluded, is
more than ever urgent today. "Dear Armenians, I fatherly persuade you
not to cede to provokating events storming our public life and wanting
to disrupt the nation, which are unequivocally headed by dark forces
of outside, making an attempt to put in Armenia and to pull our
Fatherland as well into the vortex of defamed and failed "coloured
revolutions," the primate of the Gugarats Diocese writes.
