The votive prayer is mentioned already in the Bible (Deut. 23) as a somewhat problematic way of communicating with God due to a promise it contains. Based on the Amir Mashiach’s (2014) interpretation of prayers as performative utterances in the Jewish tradition and Radoslav Katičić's (1990) linguistic research of the (pre)Slavic and Indo-European connection between legal and religious texts, the analysis will give an insight into the ancient mechanisms behind the practice of vowing, which has been continued as a part of personal piety in different religions.

Autori su na temelju arhivske građe i recentne literature istražili i analizirali suđenje koje je provedeno u postupku protiv dr. Ivana Protulipca, odvjetnika iz Zagreba i predsjednika Križarske organizacije, pred Okružnim sudom u Zagrebu, nadnevka 15. lipnja 1938. godine zbog krivičnog djela iz čl. 3. Zakona o zaštiti države Kraljevine Jugoslavije, kojim je državni tužitelj dr. Benjamin Maurović tražio za njega kaznu zatvora do pet godina. Suđenje je pokazalo da je bilo posve neosnovano te je oslobođen svake optužbe. Ključne riječi: dr. Ivan Protulipac, Okružni sud, rasprava, Križarska organizacija, suđenje, presuda.

Ubojstva Đure Basaričeka, Pavla Radića, Ivana Granđe, Ivana Pernara i Stjepana Radića bili su snažan povod za iskazivanje nezadovoljstva hrvatskog naroda. Nakon atentata više ništa nije bilo isto. Oprez i strahovlada bili su dva antipoda koji su imali obilježje neizvjesnosti i tjeskobe i za Hrvate za i Srbe. Već 6. siječnja 1929. godine Aleksandar Karađorđević putem Radio Beograda objavio je ukidanje Narodne skupštine te svih političkih stranaka, kojim je činom uveo Šestosiječanjsku diktaturu.1 Od 1929.

  • Thou Shall Not Kill: the Ustaŝa Genocide and Religious Education Today Cyndi
    Thou Shall Not Kill: The Ustaŝa Genocide and Religious Education Today Cyndi Nienhaus, CSA, Ph.D. Abstract The involvement of Pope Pius XII with Anté Pavelić, a Catholic Croatian fascist leader, in the Ustaŝa Genocide (1941-1945) is a little known and a little explored fact of church and world history and is rarely, if ever, taught in religious educational circles. It may seem unfathomable to us today that the Catholic Church recognized de facto the Ustaŝa and its attempts to create a pure Catholic Croatia by use of extermination, deportation, and conversion. Many Catholic clergy, mostly Franciscan friars, joined the Ustaŝa in efforts to annihilate and remove any Jews, Roma (gypsies), and Orthodox Christian Serbs from Croatia. Particularly disturbing is the Catholic Church’s support for Jasenovac, a Croatian concentration camp headed by a Franciscan friar, Tomislav Filipovic (nicknamed “Fr. Satan”) where he and other Franciscan friars carried out mass killings. Some scholars have nicknamed Pope Pius XII as “Hitler’s Pope” for his alleged complicity with Adolf Hitler during the Holocaust; in a similar manner and relative to the Ustaŝa Genocide, Pius XII takes on an additional nickname: “Pavelić’s Pope.” Both Pius XII and Anté Pavelić saw fascism as a way to unite Europe and to fight against communism. While situated within a complicated period of 20th century world history, the work of the Ustaŝa, along with the complicity of the Catholic Church, made it possible for approximately one million people to lose their lives. This paper explores the relationship of the Vatican with the Ustasha and explores ways religious educators today can use insights from the Ustasha Genocide as motivation to help their learners resist any temptation to use religion as fuel for violence.

  • Situation in Bosnia and Herzegovina with Emphasis on Catholic Church
    Situation in Bosnia and Herzegovina with Emphasis on Catholic Church From Church History in Bosnia and Herzegovina The First Records According to the now known documents, Bosnian Diocese was mentioned for the first time in Split Metropoly between 1060 and 1075. It later belonged to the Bar, and then in 12th century to Dubrovnik Metropoly. Following the appearance of the Bosnian Church and Christians, the first missionaries, Dominicans, come to Bosnia to preach against heresy. They belonged to the Hungarian province which had its monasteries in Slavonia, and later on in Bosnia. Arrival of the Franciscans in Bosnia In 1291, Pope Nicholas IV issued an order to the Provincial of the Province Sclavoniae (Croatia), to send to Bosnia two Franciscans, skilled in language of the local population to continuously work in rooting out heresy. This year is considered as the founding year of the Bosnian Franciscans. Ottoman and Austro-Hungarian Rule Plagued by political and religious struggles, Bosnia fell in 1463 under Ottoman rule. In 1482, Herzegovina (Hum) followed. The Ottoman occupation in Bosnia and Herzegovina caused tremendous changes, not only political but also religious, social and ethnic. The number of Catholics was extremely reduced. The Ottomans occupation of Bosnia saw destruction of 464 Catholic churches and 48 Franciscan monasteries. In 1878, by the decision of the Berlin Congress, Austro-Hungarian Empire occupied Bosnia and run the country until the end of the First World War. Restoration of Regular Church Hierarchy Pope Leo XIII in its formal letter (bull) Ex hac augusta of 5 July 1881, announced the renewal of regular church hierarchy in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

  • Catholicism and Politics in Socialist Yugoslavia
    Catholicism and Politics in Socialist Yugoslavia PEDRORAMET Relations between the Catholic Church and the Communist State in Yugo­ slavia present the observer with a fascinating, if paradoxical, situation. On the one hand, the regime', even while imposing sundry constraints on the Church, poses as the guarantor of freedom of religion, according religion status as the "private affair" of the individual, but denying the Church any right to engage in social issues - which impels the Church to resist what ecclesiastical spokesmen call the "privatization of religion", or its divorce from society.1 On the other hand, the Church, partly through its traditional identification with national aspirations, partly on account of a more recently developed role as advocate of human rights, and partly because of its unre­ mitting interest in the affairs of society, has persisted in efforts to expand its legitimate sphere of activity, even seeking, during the constitutional revi­ sions, to gain entry into the organs of policy-making. Long a force for Croatian integration, the Catholic Church today consti­ tutes a powerful bulwark for Croatian exclusivists and confronts the regime as the principal disintegrative institutional force in the developed northern republics of Yugoslavia. At the same time, Belgrade's seemingly innocuous slogan of "privatization" conceals an insidious endeavour to erode the insti­ tutional and social resources of the Church and to edge it into oblivion. The Church has repeatedly declared that it is being unjustly constrained by the authorities. Belgrade, however, has attempted to pose as the guaran­ tor of freedom of copscience, and the constitutional codes since 1953 have all guaranteed freedom of belief and of worship.
