Anatoli Shevchenko: " Spirituality and Patriotism are United by Love!"

The theme of the XXth International scientific practical conference "Role of Science, Religion and Society in Molding a Moral Personality", which has been held at the Donetsk State Institutre of Artificial Intelligence , has become a leitmotif of the next following television broadcast "Cossack Landing Place". Representatives of many religious confessions of the region have taken part in the broadcast.

Head of the All-Ukrainian Party of Spirituality and Patriotism, Hetman of the Ukrainian Registered Cossacks, Corresponding Member of the NAS of Ukraine, Ph. Doctor of Theology, Rector of the DonSIAI, Full Professor Anatoli Shevchenko directed the thoughts of the holy fathers to enlightening the problem of importance of religion in molding a Registered Cossack as a highly spiritual, highly moral citizen of our independent Ukraine.

"Let us remember the time of unforgetable Bogdan Khmelnitski. In his Cossack regiments both the Orthodox, the Catholics and Moslems, mounted on good horses, held strongly their swords." The interlocutors were called by the Ph. Doctor of Theology Anatoli Shevchenko. " They all were dripped with the one Cossack idea: to make the native Ukrainian people free, happy and rich. That was why Cossacks, after having prayed the Lord, went to fight on the battle field to face the enemies of their native Ukraine.They were supported in this holy cause by the Lord's Mother, the Most Holy - the Patron of the Ukrainian Cossacks. The Ukrainian Registered Cossacks are doing everything that Ukraine had the united Orthodox Apostle Church with the center in Kiev with its golden domes."

Anatoli Shevchenko was supported by Archbishop Donetski and Mariupolski of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the Kiev Patriarchy Vladyka Uri. He, in particular, stressed his attention on the fact, that representatives of all the religious confessions should maintain at present a level, even-tempered dialogue. He also underlined that it was necessary to unite all the Christian confessions, because it was impossible that Ukraine could exist without Christian culture.

The head of the Center of Religious Investigations and International Spiritual Links Doctor of the DonSIAI Igor Kozlovski, who, by the way, occupies at present the post of the Ukrainian Registered Cossakcs Hetman Deputy on problems of religion, having passed his duties of the URC Judge General to the dean of the Law Faculty of the Kiev National University after T.G.Shevchenko V.Andreitsev, is convinced that our society can develop harmonically only in case if every citizen could say proudly, "I am a Christian", "I am a Catholic", "I am a Jew', "I am a Moslem', when they all could conduct a dialogue on the ways of spiritual education of a moral personality, on creation of a highly spiritual society in the stae of Ukraine, with their hearts open.

The role of the Cossack idea in our society, its sources, its religious foundation, has been defined by deputy of the Tatar Cultural Center in c. Donetsk Rustam Dzhabbarov. He, by the way, has taken an active part in the XXth International scientific practical conference "Role of Science, Religion and Society in Molding a Moral Personality". A lot of scientists, religious and Cossack activists were interested in some of his thoughts. According to him, it is only the Cossacks who can unite our society and play a hig role of peace maker.

Rustam Dzhabbarov's ideas were supported by Archbishop of the Protestant Church of Ukrain Sergei Yakovlev and Presbyter Donetski and Luganski of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church father Vasili Panlelyuk, who, together with Vladyka Uri, are the spiritual tutors of the Ukrainian Registered Cossacks.

"Spirituality and patriotism, which have become the motto of the Registered Cossacks, are united by great love, which has been passed to us by Jesus Christ," Professor Anatoli Shevchenko noted in the broadcast "Spiritual Landing Place". " All of you, holy fathers, will feel this in the Church of Living God, construction of which is being completed on the territory of the Donetsk State Institute of Artificial Intelligence. This is going to be a temple, a department, a laboratory of the Faculty of Philosophy and Religious Science of our university.Here rituals of the Orthodox, Jews and Catholics are going to be conducted. I am inviting everybody to the opening of the temple on Christmas. A prayer is going to sound there, which, withr the call to spirituality, patriotism, eternal love will unite people of different nations and different confessions."
