  • Kosovo & Serbia
    FORUM 18 NEWS SERVICE, Oslo, Norway http://www.forum18.org/ The right to believe, to worship and witness The right to change one's belief or religion The right to join together and express one's belief This article was published by F18News on: 18 March 2004 KOSOVO & SERBIA: Churches & mosques destroyed amid inter-ethnic violence By Felix Corley, Forum 18 News Service <http://www.forum18.org>, and <br> Branko Bjelajac, Forum 18 News Service <http://www.forum18.org> Large scale violence in Kosovo and Serbia before the 5th anniversary of Nato's bombing raids has seen many Serbian Orthodox churches and mosques attacked, amid disputed suggestions, including by an un-named UNMIK official, that the violence in Kosovo was planned as a "pogrom against Serbs: churches are on fire and people are being attacked for no other reason than their ethnic background", Forum 18 News Service has learnt. In the Serbian capital Belgrade and in the southern city of Nis, mobs set two mosques on fire despite the pleas of the Serbian Orthodox Church. In Belgrade, Metropolitan Amfilohije of Montenegro and the Littoral personally pleaded with the mob and urged police and firefighters to react and preserve "what could be preserved". After initial hesitation for fear of the mob, firefighters and police did intervene, so the Belgrade mosque, which is "under state protection", was saved from complete destruction. In Kosovo since 1999, many attacks have been made on Orthodox shrines, without UNMIK, KFOR, or the mainly ethnically Albanian Kosovo Protection Service making any arrests of attackers. Some of the Serbian Orthodox Church's most revered shrines have been burnt amid the upsurge of inter-ethnic violence that erupted in Kosovo on 17 March, leaving at least 22 people dead and several hundred wounded.

  • TODAY We Are Celebrating Our Children's Slava SVETI SAVA

Branislav Golic, Parish Priest e-mail: [email protected] Parish Office: 724-375-4074 webpage: stelijahaliquippa.com Center Office: 724-375-9894 JANUARY 26, 2020 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Saint Sava Born Prince Rastko Nemanjic, son of the Serbian ruler and founder of the Serbian medieval state Stefan Nemanja, St. Sava became the first Patriarch of Serbia (1219-1233) and is an important Saint in the Serbian Orthodox Church. As a young boy, Rastko left home to join the Orthodox monastic colony on Mount Athos and was given the name Sava. In 1197 his father, King Stefan Nemanja, joined him. In 1198 they moved to and restored the abandoned monastery Hilandar, which was at that time the center of Serbian Orthodox monastic life. St. Sava's father took the monastic vows under the name Simeon, and died in Hilandar on February 13, 1200. He is also canonized a saint of the Church. After his father's death, Sava retreated to an ascetic monastery in Kareya which he built himself in 1199. He also wrote the Kareya typicon both for Hilandar and for the monastery of ascetism. The last typicon is inscribed into the marble board at the ascetic monastery, which today also exists there. He stayed on Athos until the end of 1207, when he persuaded the Patriarch of Constantinople to elevate him to the position of first Serbian archbishop, thereby establishing the independence of the archbishopric of the Serbian Orthodox Church in the year 1219. Saint Sava is celebrated as the founder of the independent Serbian Orthodox Church and as the patron saint of education and medicine among Serbs.

  • Causes of the New Suffering of the Serbian Orthodox Church
    UDC: 159.964.2(497) Review paper Recived: November 25, 2019. Acceptee: December 26, 2019 Coreresponding author: [email protected] THE UNREMOVED CONSEQUENCES OF THE SECOND WORLD WAR - CAUSES OF THE NEW SUFFERING OF THE SERBIAN ORTHODOX CHURCH Jovan Janjić Faculty of Business Studies and Law. [email protected] Abstract: The non-elimination of the consequences of occupation in some parts of Yugoslavia in World War II, as well as preventing and obstructing from the Yugoslav state the elimination of the con- sequences of the war suffering of the Serbian Orthodox Church, will prevent and disable the Church in certain parts of its canonical territory and endanger, destroy and confiscate its property. This will then lead to a new suffering of the Serbian people, while putting the legal successor state of Yugoslavia to additional temptations. Non-return of property to the Serbian Church will be especially in favor of secessionist forces that threaten the territorial integrity of Serbia. Keywords: Serbian Orthodox Church, Yugoslavia, Serbia, occupation, property, usurpation INTRODUCTION The revolutionary communist authorities in Yugoslavia, in an effort to establish a social order by their ideological standards, relied on some of the consequences of the occupation in World War II. Especially in policymaking on the national issue and in relation to the Church. After taking power in the country - by conducting a revolution while waging a war for liberation from occupation - Yugoslavia’s new governing nomenclature, legitimized as such during the Second World War, was not content with establishing a state order, only on the basis of a single, exclusive ideology, but it penetrated the civilizational frameworks of state jurisdiction and went about creating the whole social order.

  • The Serbian Orthodox Church and the New Serbian Identity
    Helsinki Committee for Human Rights in Serbia THE SERBIAN ORTHODOX CHURCH AND THE NEW SERBIAN IDENTITY Belgrade, 2006 This Study is a part of a larger Project "Religion and Society," realized with the assistance of the Heinrich Böll Foundation Historical Confusion At the turn of the penultimate decade of the 20th century to the last, the world was shocked by the (out-of-court) pronouncement of the death verdict for an artist, that is, an author by the leader of a theocratic regime, on the grounds that his book insulted one religion or, to be more exact, Islam and all Muslims. Naturally, it is the question of the famous Rushdie affair. According to the leader of the Iranian revolution, Ayatollah Khomeini, the novel “Satanic Verses” by Salman Rushdie was blasphemous and the author deserved to be sentenced to death by a fatwa. This case - which has not been closed to this day - demonstrated in a radical way the seriousness and complexity of the challenge which is posed by the living political force of religious fundamentalism(s) to the global aspirations of the concept of liberal capitalist democracy, whose basic postulates are a secular state and secular society. The fall of the Berlin Wall that same year (1989) marked symbolically the end of an era in the international relations and the collapse of an ideological- political project. In other words, the circumstances that had a decisive influence on the formation of the Yugoslav and Serbian society in the post- World War II period were pushed into history. Time has told that the mentioned changes caused a tragic historical confusion in Yugoslavia and in Serbia, primarily due to the unreadiness of the Yugoslav and, in particular, Serbian elites to understand and adequately respond to the challenges of the new era.

  • KOSOVO & SERBIA: Pristina Orthodox Priest "Lucky" to Be Alive
    FORUM 18 NEWS SERVICE, Oslo, Norway http://www.forum18.org/ The right to believe, to worship and witness The right to change one's belief or religion The right to join together and express one's belief This article was published by F18News on: 19 March 2004 KOSOVO & SERBIA: Pristina Orthodox priest "lucky" to be alive By Branko Bjelajac, Forum 18 News Service <http://www.forum18.org> The parish priest of the St Nicholas' Church in Kosovo's capital Pristina has told Forum 18 News Service that he is lucky to be alive after an Albanian mob burnt his his church down yesterday evening, and set his parish house on fire just before dawn this morning. "I was lucky they did not look in the cellar otherwise God knows if this morning I would still be alive," he told Forum 18. St Nicholas' church, has long been under threat, especially since KFOR's guard force was removed last May. Since 1999, no attackers on this or any other Orthodox Church have been arrested by UNMIK, KFOR, or the mainly ethnically Albanian Kosovo Protection Service. At least 31 people have been killed so far, and about 17 churches and other Serbian Orthodox sites destroyed in the anti-Serb violence that began on 17 March and is still continuing (see F18News 18 March 2004 <http://www.forum18.org/Archive.php?article_id=280>). Some Albanian politicians have, along with the Visoki Decani Orthodox Monastery, tried to stop the violence, which the international ombudsperson, Marek Antoni Nowicki described as "the intent to cleanse this land from the presence of all Serbs, in total rejection of the idea of a multi-ethnic cohabitation in Kosovo".

  • Serbian Cultural and Religious Heritage in Kosovo and Metohija  Statement of Serbia’S Delegation to the OSCE About Persecution in Kosovo
    Table of Contents Serbian cultural and religious heritage in Kosovo and Metohija Statement of Serbia’s delegation to the OSCE about persecution in Kosovo Serbian cultural and religious heritage in Kosovo and Metohija By Amb. Tamara Rastovac Siamasvili NewEurope (26.09.2019) - https://bit.ly/2mWb5qR - Kosovo and Metohija are the cradle of both the Serbian state and church, as well as of the spiritual home of the centuries- old culture of the Serbian people. Around 1,300 churches, monasteries, and other sites comprising Serbia’s cultural heritage are located there. The tangible and non-tangible Serbian cultural heritage in Kosovo and Metohija is an authentic and fundamental part of its national identity and our major contribution to the cultural heritage of Europe and the world. The indivisible bond between the spiritual tradition of the Serbian people with Kosovo and Metohija is also evidenced in the etymology of the very name of Serbia’s most southern province. Metohija is a word of Greek origin meaning “the land under monastic administration”. The rich Serbian heritage in Kosovo and Metohija is of immeasurable importance to the cultural and national history of the Serbs and is crucial for understanding its past, present, and future. In the centuries of Turkish and Austrian rule, both which followed in the wake of the historic 1389 Battle of Kosovo, it was this heritage that had a decisive impact on the spiritual and cultural life of Serbs. To this day, remains the key feature of the Serbian national being and identity. Much like the French cultural heritage cannot be imagined without Paris’ Notre Dame Cathedral, neither can Serbia begin to comprehend its existence without the holy sites of Dečani, Gračanica, Zočište, and the Patriarchate of Peć, where Serbia’s Patriarch has resided since the 13th century.

  • The Influence of Religion on the Creation of National Identity in Serbia
    Journal of Identity and Migration Studies Volume 4, number 2, 2010 ESSAYS The Influence of Religion on the Creation of National Identity in Serbia Violeta CVETKOVSKA OCOKOLJIC, Tatjana CVETKOVSKI Abstract. This paper analyzes new religious values on the territory of Serbia and the creation of cultural-national model. During the nineties in Serbia the return to religion had been most popular. National homogenization due to the dissolution of the old state and creation of individual states with specific national characteristics was awakening. This phenomenon was caused by the need to establish some new and revive old values in the domain of culture, tradition and religion. Serbian Orthodox Church intimacy retreats before the rush of false believers who shift the stage of public squares into church and monasteries. Radical nationalism created a specific form of symbols and behavior. The identity of the entire nation is reduced to the dimension which equals national and religious affiliations. In this way, a desire to keep cultural, national and religious specificity turns into the fear of the deadly disease of Western culture. The paper analyzes the data of the research conducted on: the public expression of citizens’ religious affiliation, the influence of religion on the creation of national identity, the instrumentalization of religion by politicians and the use and misuse of religious symbols. In addition thanks to the research we can determine the effect of creating resistance or acceptance new values that are a necessary condition for positive change and joining the European Union. In addition, the impact of politics on the creation of national identity through the Orthodox religion, which creates a new form of ideology, can be determined.
