 Aram G. Sarkisian

Άρχοντος Μ. Ιερομνήμονος της Μ.τ.Χ.Ε.

Bασικά συστατικά της κατ’ Ανατολάς Ορθοδόξου Καθολικής Εκκλησίας είναι η πιστότητα στην οικουμενικότητα του Ευαγγελίου και στην Αποστολική Παράδοση που κωδικοποίησαν οι Πατέρες μέσα στους Ιερούς Κανόνες. Χάρις σ’ αυτή τη κληρονομία διαφυλάχθηκε η ορθή πίστη, η ορθή δοξολογία και η ορθή πράξη μέσα στην Μητέρα Εκκλησία που καταστάθηκε κατά τον Ιουστινιάνειο κώδικα ( Ι 2,24) «πασών των άλλων έστι κεφαλή» κατέχουσα υπερεθνική τη καθοδηγητική δύναμη στην πορεία της Ορθοδοξίας.

FUNDAMENTALISM AS 'ORTHODOXISM'

by Haralambos Ventis

Our long-standing captivity to a sad caricature of Orthodoxy that could be called “orthodoxism,” and whose main characteristics will be summarized in what follows, has been largely consolidated by a widespread attitude in the Church known as “the fear of theology.” It is this fear that has propelled the substitution of theology with a shallow, stale “spirituality” based on an excess of pious yet vacuous sentimentalism.

SAN NICOLA, SANTO ECUMENICO

Basilica Pontificia di San Nico­la

P. Gerardo Cioffari OP

La figura di S. Nicola ha un grande ruolo nelle relazioni interreligiose perché è il Santo più venerato nell’Ortodossia, e specialmente nel mondo slavo. E’ auspicabile pertanto non solo una restituzione della sua festa liturgica a memoria obbligatoria, ma anche che si proceda eventualmente alla sua proclamazione quale patrono dell’ecumenismo cattolico-ortodosso.
