Stephen Meyer expressed concerns that proposed textbooks would " leave students in the dark about contemporary mainstream scientific controversies over Darwinian evolution. Interview with Fr. Damascene (Christensen), from the Monastery of St. Herman of Alaska in Platina, California Hieromonk Damascene (Christensen), Nun Kornilia (Rees) Interview with Fr. Damascene (Christensen), from the Monastery of St. Herman of Alaska in Platina, California Hieromonk Damascene (Christensen), Nun Kornilia (Rees) On Wednesday, the fourth day of the annual Nativity readings began the conference section dedicated to the «Orthodox understanding of creation of the world». One of the speakers was an Orthodox hieromonk, Fr. Damascene (Christensen), an American from the Monastery of St. Herman of Alaska in Platina, California, which belongs to the Serbian Orthodox Diocese of Western America. This monastery is well known in Russia as the home of Fr. Seraphim Rose, its founder, and Fr. Damascene is a member of the Brotherhood from the time of Fr. Seraphim’s repose. He is the author Fr. Seraphim’s biography (due to appear in a new Russian version this year under the title Father Seraphim Rose: His Life and Works), and is something of an expert on Fr. Seraphim’s Life and writings in general. Комментарии Anahid 9 ноября 2016, 05:00 Thank you Philip Ben Marston, DPM 7 сентября 2015, 02:00 Darwin " s finches are better understood as manifesting epigenetic changes, and not variation of their inner essence. The quality of the beaks of the birds went back and forth too rapidly and predictably from rainy weather beaks to dry weather beaks, to be explained by random mutations, but are admirably consistent with epigenetic changes, caused by alterations in the environment. Epigenetic changes can be passed on to the next generation, as the mechanism for the suppression of the expression of genes can be passed on intergenerationally.

Tweet Нравится Patriarch of Serbia calls gay parade a rally of perversions and vices Belgrade, May 17, 2014 Patriarch Irinej of Serbia has called the gay parade " the tip of the immoral iceberg and a gathering of all perversions and vices " .      " I have pity for these people, who belong to the so-called gay population. This is a disorder or an aberration of human nature... I cannot understand why they are imposing this problem on us and are openly demonstrating it, " said head of the Serbian Church in his interview with the Nedelnik newspaper, answering the question whether the Serbian Church was intending to strive for prohibition of the gay parade by the authorities. This year again in the Serbian capital a weeklong action, " Gay pride parade " is being prepared, rich in various events, exhibitions and concerts popularizing different manifestations of the LGTB community " s activities. Preparation for these actions has again split the Serbian society, as the majority of the Serbian population are opposed to such events. Last year, a similar " Pride parade " was accompanied by blasphemous and profane tricks. Furthermore, representatives of the EU countries and the USA exerted unprecedented pressure on the Serbian authorities and the public to hold these events, and various European politicians and diplomats played an active part in promoting them.

     “When I look at the present state of things in the world I realize that Vladimir Putin is the sole defender of Christian civilization one can rely on,” Assad said in an interview with French magazine Valeurs Actuelles. The Syrian leader also said that he would step down only if asked to by the Syrian people and the Syrian parliament, adding that the issue of his possible resignation had not yet been raised on an international level. Syria will only share intelligence information with France if Paris changes its policies in the region, President Assad said. " If the French government is not serious in its fight against terrorism, we will not waste our time collaborating with a country, government or an institution that supports terrorism, " he noted in the interview carried out the day after Friday " s deadly attacks in Paris. " You have to first change policy so that it is based on one criteria, to be part of an alliance that joins countries only fighting terrorism and not supporting them, " Assad added. More than 220,000 Syrians have lost their lives in four-and-a-half years of armed conflict, which began with anti-government protests before escalating into a full-scale civil war. More than 11 million others have been forced from their homes as forces loyal to President Bashar Assad and those opposed to his rule battle each other — as well as jihadist militants from Islamic State and the al-Nusra Front. 18 ноября 2015 г. Смотри также Комментарии ChiRho 18 ноября 2015, 21:00 Bashar Assad is correct. The majority of European leaders are not Christians and do not care for Christians. They are Socialists (Communism-light) and Marxists. They have more in common with the Islamists than Christians and their policies support this idea. The president of the United States is most certainly not a Christian and more pro-Islamists than the European leaders. The anti-Assad fighters are Sunnis from mostly outside of Syria pretending they want democracy. In truth, their goal is to take out the strongmen (the mostly secular leaders of the Middle East and North Africa who maintain order and relative freedom) and replace them with hardline Islamists who are loyal to the Muslim Brotherhood. Syria is not experiencing civil war, it is experiencing an invasion. Just as with Tunisia, Libya, Egypt, etc the Muslim Brotherhood is attempting to overthrow governments and install their people. Russia did more damage to IS in a couple weeks than anyone else did in over a year. Europe and the USA are pretending to fight IS while actually aiding it. Putin deserves much credit. The other world leaders only give empty words and shows, Russia is actually fighting on the side of Christianity. Мы в соцсетях Подпишитесь на нашу рассылку

One can say that it happened even before the signing of the Act. The Russian people who live abroad mostly awaited unification, and prayed for it.

I read a great deal, trying to find an answer. I thought that one could find truth through art. But one day, as I was passing by a hospital, I thought that maybe one of the ways to find the answer to this angst-ridden question could lie in working in a hospital, side by side with people and their sufferings.

Справка в приложении 1 написана газетным стилем, доказательств представленных в ней утверждений не содержит. Кроме того, в Докладе заявлено, что был сделан « обзор предыдущих заявлений » В. Степанова - « бывшего сотрудника РУСАДА, не участвовавшего в расследовании » [« Stepanov, a former employee of RUSADA did not participate in the investigation »] (с. 7). Что за заявления Степанова обозревались, из каких источников брались такие заявления (заявления в желтой прессе или сделанные под присягой заявления, иные какие-то), в Докладе вновь умалчивается. Многократно употребляется также слово «свидетели» (с. 5, 7, 21, 23, 27 и др.). Показания анонимных свидетелей заявлены еще одним источником информации, заложенной в основу Доклада: « Были и другие свидетели , которые участвовали в расследовании на условиях конфиденциальности. Их показания были важны для работы следствия, потому что они дали очень надежное перекрестное подтверждение устных и документальных доказательств, которые НЛ получило ранее.

Patriarchate of Georgia protests against foundation of children " s home by LGBT activists/Православие.Ru Patriarchate of Georgia protests against foundation of children " s home by LGBT activists Tbilisi, November 14, 2013 The Patriarchate of Georgia sees a danger in the initiative of the Georgian NGO, " Identity " , that is actively defending rights of sexual minorities, of founding an orphanage for homeless children in Tbilisi. The " Identity " NPO, which had several times organized protests in Tbilisi against violence towards LGBT that led to conflicts with the opponents, early in November put forward an initiative to open an orphanage for homeless and indigent children. At the same time, the NGO established a bank account for fundraising activity. The statement of the Patriarchate notes that " Identity " is an advocate of rights of homosexuals and other sexual minorities and their active supporter. " Of course, there is a danger that the ‘guardians’ will encourage such way of life, and it is very likely that minors will become followers of this orientation, and that is a violation of a child’s universally recognized right—the right to private life.
