V Praze dne 25. 11. 2014 2 Bibliografická citace Dopady různosti obřadů v manželských kauzách na církevním soudu [rukopis]: disertační práce / Miloš Szabo; vedoucí práce: Antonín Hrdina. – Praha, 2014. – 187 s. (+ 74 s. příloha) Anotace Křesťanství se z Jeruzaléma šířilo několika směry. Jedno z jeho nejvlivnějších center vzniklo v Římě, jenž se stal také sídlem papežů a zůstal jím i po přesídlení císaře do tehdy řecké Konstantinopole. Kromě Říma, spjatého s apoštolem Petrem však existovaly i další velké křesťanské obce, založené ostatními apoštoly, ležící na východ od římské říše, které se stejně jako ta římská nazývaly církví. A tak i dnes kromě největší latinské (římské) církve existují desítky východních, právem se chlubících vlastní apoštolskou tradicí. V průběhu dějin došlo několikrát k narušení jejich komunikace s Římem, ale i mezi sebou navzájem. V dnešní době, kdy z různých důvodů dochází k velkým migračním vlnám, se některá církevní společenství, doposud považována striktně za východní, dostávají do diaspory s latinskou církví, čímž vzniká nejen velká pravděpodobnost růstu počtu smíšených intereklesiálních manželství, ale zároveň také zvýšené množství manželských kauz, které bude muset následně řešit církevní soud. Aby jeho rozhodnutí bylo spravedlivé, je potřebné znát jak historii těchto východních církví, mezi nimiž je i dvacet dva sjednocených s Římem (tedy východní katolické církve), tak i především jejich teologická specifika, spiritualitu a partikulární právo.

I am therefore glad to welcome you today too, at this simple family meeting and to address my cordial greeting to the new Cardinals and likewise to their relatives, to their friends and to all who have accompanied them on this most solemn and important occasion. I extend a cordial greeting to the English-speaking Prelates whom I had the joy of raising to the dignity of Cardinal in last Saturday’s Consistory: Cardinal James Michael Harvey, Archpriest of the Papal Basilica of St Paul’s Outside-the-Walls; Cardinal Baselios Cleemis Thottunkal, Major Archbishop of Trivandrum for Syro-Malankaras, India; Cardinal John Olorunfemi Onaiyekan, Archbishop of Abuja, Nigeria; and Cardinal Luis Antonio Tagle, Archbishop of Manila, the Philippines.

  • India- Holy See Relations Diplomatic Relations Between India and The
    India- Holy See Relations Diplomatic relations between India and the Holy See were established soon after India’s independence. India’s Ambassador in Berne, Switzerland, has traditionally been accredited to the Holy See which maintains a Nunciature (Embassy) in New Delhi, presently headed by a Nuncio (Ambassador). India has the second largest Catholic population in Asia including those from Kerala dating from Apostolic times. With a shortage of priests and nuns from developed countries, a large number of Indians have joined various Roman Catholic Orders and a number of them have started occupying high positions within the Catholic Church institutions including those in Rome. India and Indians have a positive image in the Catholic community. Although the strength of the Christian (and hence the Catholic) community forms only a small proportion of India’s population, the Holy See has always acknowledged the importance of India, both in global and Asian terms. There have been three Papal visits to India so far. The first Pope to visit India was Pope Paul IV, who visited Mumbai in 1964 to attend the International Eucharistic Congress. Pope John Paul II visited India in February 1986 and November 1999. He participated in the concluding session of Synod of Bishops of Asia at which he signed and released post-Synodal Apostolic Exhortation. HH Pope Francis, the 76- year-old Jorge Mario Bergoglio from Argentina was elected as Supreme Pontiff on 13th March 2013. H.E. Archbishop Parolin was inaugurated as the new Secretary of State of the Holy See in place of H.E. Bertone. Several Indian dignitaries have, from time to time, called on the Pope in the Vatican.

For this season, the Third Extraordinary General Assembly (5th-19th October, 2014) discussed the question of Pastoral Challenges to the Family in the Context of Evangelization. In addition, at the Fourteenth Ordi- nary General Assembly (4th-25th October, 2015) a similar question, The Vocation and Mission of the Family in the Church and in the Contemporary World, was discussed. 139 THE PRESENCE OF THE ORTHODOX CHURCHES When I received the preparation material for the conference Theology Be- tween East and West in Warsaw, I immediately started looking for a topic that would be a good fit for my background in moral theology, while exploring the given theme of East and West. It was with little difficulty that I found a variety of topics relating to family synods. Prior to preparing for the conference I had already explored and become acquainted with a range of sources that intersected Eastern Orthodox and Western theological themes in relation to the topic of families.

THEOLOGIAE APUD PONTIFICIAM UNIVERSITATEM S. THOMAE IN URBE ___________________ Moderator: Prof. James Puglisi, S. A. ROMAE 2014 2 ACKNOWLEDGEMENT The completion of this research is the result of much toil and prayer. As I place on record my indebtedness to all those who have helped me to finish this doctoral dissertation, I bow down before God and proclaim with Mary: “The Almighty has done great things for me.” I am really privileged to do this work with Prof. James Puglisi S.A., whose expertise in the area of Dogmatic theology, Ecumenism, and Interreligious affairs is prodigious. He also has an in-depth knowledge of theological affairs related to the Syro-Malankara Catholic Church, which enormously aided me to dig deeper. It is with gratitude I remember all the professors and the Staff of the Pontifical University of St. Thomas Aquinas, who helped me to broaden my intellectual abilities. My bishop, Moran Mor Baselios Cardinal Cleemis, the Major Archbishop-Catholicos of the Syro-Malankara Catholic Church, with his paternal care, encouragement and constant support helped me to finish the studies on time. I thank Mr. Lintu Markose and Dn. Michael O’Keefe for their valuable help in language corrections of my text. I also gratefully acknowledge the support and love I received from the community at the Curia Generalizia dei Passionisti and Collegio San Norberto, during my stay in Rome.
