Patriarch
Thank you all for your prayer
I sincerely thank all of you for praying for me. I know that this prayer is daily, the whole Church prays, and, probably, without this prayer it would be impossible to carry out the Patriarchal ministry. But when they pray for me on this day, a personal day, with which the very appearance of a person in life is connected, then, I think, this prayer is heard by the Lord, and help is poured out on the one for whom they pray. And through those present here, I thank all of you now, my dear bishops, fathers, brothers and sisters, who today, all over the face of our earth, in all the fullness of our Church, have been offering up prayers for the Patriarch.

Anatoly Torkunov: «What’s really important is how many students are blood donors»
On August 26, Mr Anatoly Torkunov, member of the Russian Academy of Sciences, rector of the Moscow State Institute for International relations at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, chairman of Trusteeship Council of the Foma Magazine, turns 70. Mr Torkunov is talking with Parsuna on Spas TV about happiness, forgiveness, normal young people, and a university church.

Russia an Island of Freedom in Raging Sea of Cancelled Morality
Indeed, Russia is capable to resist alien, godless, anti-Christian forces. Those forces which aim their sting at human hearts, so that we lose our ability to tell good from evil. Gone from the political vocabulary is the concept of sin: they enforce a new model of behavior, claiming that good is what they please. But when so-called civilized world, by and large, picks up this idea, Russia, just as in the past times, has the guts to disobey. We must stick to the notion of good and evil, not from political interests or someone's ambition, but from that moral law which God has placed in our souls, in the human nature.

Alexey Savvateev: "Wisdom is you take on exactly the problems that you can solve"
Life is not equal to mind, life is an irrational and a very chaotic thing, and if these bastards ever design a homo sapiens, I mean, turn a man into a robot — this will be the end of history.

Russia Is Fighting Against Global Evil
Powerful propaganda forces in the world today are working to destroy the concepts of good and evil, and Russia here is fulfilling a special mission to preserve the traditional worldview, which allows people to remain truly free. This opinion was expressed on Thursday by Patriarch Kirill of Moscow and All Russia in a sermon after the liturgy at the Donskoy Monastery.

Cancel reporting, teachers’s pay and my math program, – three solutions by mathematician Alexei Savvateyev, if he were to become Minister of Education
Why mathematics is a language of God and what miracles happen in a scientist’s life? Why proof of unscientific nature of homeopathy is unscientific, and why lack of forgiveness is dangerous? These and many other very extremely interesting issues were discussed by mathematician Alexei Savvateyev and Vladimir Legoida in Parsuna TV show.

The Church and clergy on social media
Any clergyman who participates in discussions on Facebook, Twitter, LiveJournal and other online communities must constantly remember the responsibility that is imposed on him by speaking in a public space. People look at you primarily as priests. The careless and sometimes outrageous statements of individual clergy cast a shadow on the entire Church of God, causing waves of reciprocal discussions in the blogosphere, in which the subject of attacks becomes not so much the author of the lines him-self as the Russian Orthodox Church as a whole. Nobody forbids you to participate in the life of Internet communities and leave your comments in the topics, but it is necessary to act with judgment and discretion.

Russian State Duma deputy Yevgeny Primakov: «I'm not a forgiving guy»
People who did wrong and were unjust simply cease to exist for me. Let me give you an example. One of the instigators of that campaign recently died in a tragic accident. TV channels called me on the strange assumption that I would want to comment. I said I wouldn't, what was done was done. I leave my personal feelings to myself.

The Church’s relationship with the secular media
It is important to remember that they judge the whole Church by each priest, and “thanks” to the media, any unpleasant incident causes a wide resonance. It is also important to remember that there are pastoral questions, and there are questions associated with church-social or church-state relations.

Personnel in the Church’s media
For two decades of unrestrained existence of our Church press, the issue of the quality of journalistic personnel in the Orthodox media has remained invariably relevant. I remember how, when I was the chairman of the Department for External Church Relations, in a fit of temper one day, I rebuked my employee responsible for media: “Can we still not find anyone to work with us who is both religious and good at writing?”

Artem Oganov: «A scientist who is dishonest is a dead scientist»
Science does not forgive dishonesty. Unfortunately, the category of scientists engaged in fraud and forgery is not so rare. There are people who made a brilliant career using this trick. But then their schemes were exposed, since there is a time all cats eventually get out of the bag. In such a situation, nothing will save the fraudster. Science will be merciless.
