Bulgarian Orthodox Church: World continues to be torn apart by injustice and violence

"It is disturbing that even today, two millennia after the Resurrection of Christ, the world which we live in continues to be torn apart by injustices and contradictions, by wars and all kinds of hatred and violence; that though redeemed by God, the world continues to be sick, fallen down into passions and sins." This is stated in a message of the Bulgarian Patriarch Neophyte and the Holy Synod of the Bulgarian Orthodox Church on the occasion of the great Christian holiday of the Resurrection of Christ.

The message says that eternal Christian values ​​are increasingly being displaced by unseen selfishness and ego-centrism, by a passion for possessions and consumerism; that humanity is finding it increasingly difficult to live in peace, both with itself and with nature around it. Believers are urged to follow the enduring principles of the Christian attitude to the world and all that surrounds us.
