In July 1987 the Patriarchate opened an information centre where Soviet and foreign journalists could be briefed on the preparations for the \"millennium\" and receive literature on the position of religion in the USSR. 1 By now the church will have held its local council (Sobor) at the Trinity-St Sergius Lavra in Zagorsk (6-9 June), only the fourth such council in the entire Soviet period (the previous Sobory had been convoked in 1917-18, 1945 and 1971, and on each occasion a new patriarch of the Russian Church had been elected). The main ceremony to mark the millennium will have taken place on 10 June at the Cathedral of the Resurrection in Moscow's Danilov Monastery. Ceremonies have also been planned for Kiev, Leningrad, Minsk and Vladimir, to be attended by delegates to the council as well as by visitors from abroad. Special worship services have been scheduled in all dioceses and parishes of the Moscow Patriarchate. 2 To the untrained Western eye, all of this suggests that religious life is flourishing in the Soviet Union. But unfortunately, appearances can be deceptive. The true status of the Russian Orthodox Church today can be understood only after one has become aware of the legal framework within which the Russian Church must lead its existence. In this context, it is instructive to look at how the state-controlled Soviet press is covering the millennium what are Soviet citizens being told about the event? --:and to com.pare what the press says with the arguments advanced in a number of recent samizdat statements by Orthodox believers.","PeriodicalId":197393,"journal":{"name":"Religion in Communist Lands","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1988-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123474617","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Article 92 of the Constitution states that \"It shall be the sacred duty of every citizen to defend the country\" and that \"Military service shall be an honourable patriotic duty of citizens of the Polish People's Republic\". 1 All men between the ages of 18 and 28 must perform up to two years' military service, unless exempted for personal or medical reasons. According to the bill relating to military service there is, however, provision for alternative service. Articles 140 and 141 of Section V of the Law on the General Obligation to Defend the Polish People's Republic (1967) stipulate that a conscript who is physically fit to perform military service can be directed by the commandant of the Military Recruiting Board to alternative service in the health services, to the protection of the environment or to social service or other institutions of public utility. 2 On the basis of the above-quoted Law, the Council of Ministers \"issued on 29 September 1980 a Regulation of the Council of Ministers concerning alternative service for conscripts. It regulates in detail procedures for directing conscripts to such services and the manner in which they are to fulfil their obligations to the state. Section 1 paragraph 1 of this regulation establishes that conscripts are directed to such services at their request. 3 These provisions for alternative service were described in two separate statements by Colonel Jaroslaw Bielecki, a representative of the GHQ of the Polish Army, and General Leslaw Wojtasik, Defence Ministry spokesman, in January 1987. 4","PeriodicalId":197393,"journal":{"name":"Religion in Communist Lands","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1988-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131137834","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

I deplore the first; I rejoice in the second.' Sensibility for me means ways of apprehending things and putting a value on them the kind of notion implied in Matthew Arnold's description of the ideal critic as a man \"of common sense and uncommon sensibility\" . The late and much-lamented Hugh Seton-Watson wrote towards the end of his life that the proper definition of what Europe stands for in our time is European culture not Christianity, not power, but an indivisible European culture; culture, moreover, in T.S. Eliot's sense of the word rather than the one used by anthropologists. I believe this to be true, but if so, it is important that we should examine the influences that now shape this culture. The two forms of sensibility emanating from Eastern Europe are two such influences. The first of these may be described as one generated by a wholly materialistic conception of life in a totalitarian or near-totalitarian environment and in geographic isolation. It expresses itself in a variety of forms some spectacular, others subliminal but no less important. We can hardly spend half an hour with recent arrivals from the Soviet Union or Eastern Europe without being made aware that they have brought with them a truncated or indeed grotesque idea of what education is about. The independent study of the classics, philosophy, history and even literary culture have been so drastically cut back or forced into conformity with the prevailing ideology that generations of men and women have g,rown up in these countries to whom the familiar reference points in European thinking and sensibility mean nothing. They are ignorant of Western languages, of the Bible, Homer, Tacitus, Virgil; of the thinkers and poets of Humanism, of the Renaissance and the Reformation. I have met modern Russian writers who were unfamiliar with the names of Yeats, Rilke and Silone.

However, the street along which the enquirer has to pass in order to reach the New Apostolic Church building in Dresden-Neustadt seems to surpass almost everything in its standards of grimy decay. The roadway is so full of obstacles that the passer-by has to use extreme care; the woodwork of windows and doors is in part rotten; the facades on both left and right are crumbling and covered with layers of dust. Presently the enquirer sees what he is looking for a well-kept notice bearing the words \"Neuapostolische Kirche\" and the church's distinctive symbol, 1 a cross planted in water against the background of a rising sun. Having crossed a courtyard, the enquirer finds himself in a totally different world in a well-lit, well-warmed oblong hall, dominated by a much larger version of the New Apostolic Church's symbol. It is a sizeable church building, holding when full seven or eight hundred people; it is in good decorative order and equipped with excellent electronic equipment. Having been greeted in a thoroughly friendly manner by the stewards, the enquirer takes his place in a pew and looks about him. There is a curiously traditionalist some might say old-fashioned atmosphere about the style of worship. Although there is no standard attire for the women, nearly all the men present (certainly all the church officials) wear well-cut black suits. The hymn-book, dating from 1924, is printed in the old Gothic script. The singing of the first hymn is impressive, as all members of the congregation lift up their voices with vigour. There are two speakers, or preachers, who in turn occupy the pulpit a centrally placed podium at the \"east\" end of the building, very much in the Reformed tradition. The preachers deal with such themes as the heavy responsibility of New Apostolic people","PeriodicalId":197393,"journal":{"name":"Religion in Communist Lands","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1988-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124536026","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
