"ROUND TABLE"
“Orthodox civilization – internal and external challenges”
Many people say: “Tell me who your friend is, and I will tell you who you are.” You can also say the other way around: “Tell me who your enemy is, and it will be even clearer to me who you are!” The absence of an enemy, both for a person and for an entire people, is a homonym for a certain failure, intellectual, metaphysical, spiritual. It is very important to determine who we are and who our enemies, the leaders of evil, are. Where is our format, where are our capabilities? Where our territory ends and the territory of alienation begins.
Keywords: Orthodox civilization, Russian Orthodox church
