Father Bartholomew of the Georgian Orthodox Church cursed those MPs
who voted in favor of the legislative amendment that granted status
to different religious groups.
"I curse all deputies who voted for this law. Damn their heads on
their shoulders, their shoulders on their bodies, their hips over
their knees, their knees over their shins, their shins over their
ankles, their ankles over their feet. Let the earth under their feet
be cursed; let the world turn upside down and hell swallow their
spirits and bodies. Amen," he said, reports newspaper Kviris Kronik.
Head of the Georgian Church, Catholicos Patriarch of All Georgia His
Holiness and Beatitude Ilia II, along the same vein, said, "He who
humiliated and humiliates the church will surely be punished... dying
is the family and blood of the one who dismantles the church!
Georgian Labour Party leader Shalva Natelashvili insists that
"President Mikheil Saakashvili made a commitment to certain regions
of America to approve such a law back in 1993-1995."
"You saw that the American ambassador, through an official statement,
expressed his appreciation and welcomed that which happened with
religion? Isn't that an official statement? And [Polish-American
political analyst Zbigniew] Brzezinski's remarks too are well known:
'After the victory over the Communist regime, our goal is to win the
[Christian] Orthodoxy...' That is what they are trying to carry out
with their hands...," he said.
