Happy Resurrection Day / Easter, dear Orthodox Christian brothers and sisters.

Isn't zelensky a jew?

Did he put in his mound the words christ is risen

Ukraine is a predominantly Christian (orthodox if I’m not mistaken) country, that seems to be have higher levels of religiosity than much of Western Europe. Him having an Easter message doesn’t strike me as any more odd than when any other nation’s leader acknowledges a holiday celebrated by citizens or residents of their country even if they don’t specifically celebrate that holiday.

@@anytika Lmao, so true! :-)))))

It's no different from President Biden, a Catholic, acknowledging Hanukkah or Prime Minister Trudeau, also Catholic, acknowledging Diwali. I expect a leader to recognize all important religious holidays, including those they don't celebrate.

A igualdade social existe no que respeita a vida em todos os níveis de capacidade de momento; a gratuidade é o único recurso capaz de respeitar a vida em todos os níveis de capacidade de momento. Quando existe a busca por poder em que o ser humano não sabe compartilhar ou perder um pouco para que todos ganhem; existem os abusos políticos as guerras e disputas que trazem desgraças e sofrimento para as pessoas. Capitalismo e socialismo são apenas variáveis dependentes da gratuidade para efeito de igualdade social e evolução humana; essas são condições firmamentais e científicas. Eu recomendo acreditar e seguir os ensinamentos de Jesus Cristo.

Well written.

I understand and agree with the last part. Follow Christ.

Of course, Zelenski needs his TV attendance even on a Sunday!

Religions are supposed to be associated with peace. But history seems to has proven opposite.
