I hear, I read that in front of our eyes Poland turns into Belarus? And I can't believe my ears and eyes. Is it?! erstwhile religion is rejected in Poland, in short, it makes all effort to celebrate the state, in a public space erstwhile fashion for immorality, in Belarus in spiritual and moral education of young people looks at preserving national unity, it focuses on what is “the salt of the earth and light for the world”, on learning and cultivating the cultural and spiritual heritage of Belarus. Thus, in 2021 he started, at the leading Belarusian University of Belarus State University (ru. БГУ Belorussian Gosudczanny University, Belarusian. БДУ Belorussian Detached University) task "Dialog of Culture and Religion". Since then, students, teachers and representatives of the administration of the Belarusian State University regularly visit shrines and houses of prayers of the leading religions of the Republic of Belarus. They regularly host Catholic parishes, specified as the 1 in Budsław, the most crucial in Belarus the National Catholic Shrine of the presumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, 1 of the "seven miracles of Belarus".
It's no different this year. 15 January 2024 BPU students visited 2 parishes, including one more time Budsławska, and the oldest Catholic cemetery in Minsk- Calvary cemetery – the oldest preserved Catholic necropolis in Minsk, described in travel notes Władysław Syrokomla, a well-known Polish poet, folk singers, called "a village lyricist", a local historian of the 19th century and translator of the romanticist era. According to the Belarusian press, the visit of students from the leading university in the country to Catholic sanctuaries took place as part of a large-scale task “Dialog of Culture and Religion” initiated by the Belarusian State University.” The aim is not only to survey the past and traditions of the leading religions of the Republic of Belarus, to conduct technological investigation in the fields of architectural studies, spiritual painting, the creation of parish archives, but also, and possibly above all, the preservation of cultural and historical heritage. Students will learn about the past of the parishes visited, Christmas traditions, and the investigation of the Church in the past of religion. The task besides involves active participation of representatives of the Church of Belarus in discussion forums, circular tables, conferences. Thus, representatives of the Church, at the invitation of BPU leadership, are permanent guests of the leading university in the country. Catholic clergy attended a service on the occasion of the fresh celebrations of the university's 100th anniversary, are guests of the university library, the BPU past museum and actively participate in the university's life.
What do we have in Poland?! Apart from how much the predecessors, unfortunately, have made religion in our country and treated the Catholic Church as instruments of government, and their successors, present-day rulers of the “soul” in an incredibly aggressive way, hysterically, cultural and spiritual heritage effort to disgust, ridicule, marginalize after rubberming completely, the conclusion is one:
This is what Belarus will be like to its youth hiding ..., this is what Poland will be like to its youth hiding! So, no, Poland does not change to Belarus, on the contrary. Therefore: “God has something Poland, for so many centuries ...”
