The Romanian Patriarchate, published publicly after the last gesture

The Romanian Patriarchate He publicly took the attitude towards the organization of the Bucharest Pride march, while in the case of thousands of women killed – most recently, the murder of Cosmopolis – did not blow a word. What I cannot understand is the silence of the Church in this case, the sociologist stressed Gelu Sunday,

« A woman was murdered together with the child he had in his belly. Thousands of women in recent years have had the same fate. One of the commandments set out by the Holy Book of Christianity is « not to kill ». The church does not react.
The Pride is organized near an important day of Orthodoxy. The church issues a public statement in which it draws attention to the moral danger.
I can understand the need to react a BOR to Pride. They did it every year and I can try to make efforts, without agreeing to their official position, to understand their position. What I can’t understand is silence on the first case. Is it the commandments of the arbitrary Lord? Is it the life of the one next to us less important than sexuality? Or is it just an increasingly obvious removal, the love of the neighbor that our God has shown us? ”Wrote the sociologist on his Facebook page.

On Thursday, the Romanian Patriarchate expressed « open » « concern and disapproval of the Bucharest Pride march, which will take place on Saturday, June 7, 2025, on the eve of the great royal feast of the Holy Spirit (Pentecost or Pentecost) ».

The Patriarchate believes that the Bucharest Pride event is attached « defiantly » to the aforementioned religious holiday, the latter having a holy connotation for the whole of Christianity. « Therefore, Bucharest Pride is a provocative and totally inappropriate act especially in the current context marked by secularist ideologies and social tensions. » says the institution.
At the same time, the Romanian Patriarchate has appealed to all the Orthodox believers « to intensify the prayer for the Christian family, not to respond to the challenges from the participants to the Bucharest Pride march, nor to use an offensive language or a violent behavior towards them, which contradicts a Romanian Orthodox Church ».

« For the Romanian Orthodox Church, these provocative manifestations are especially harmful to young and innocent children. The Christian teaching, based on the Holy Scripture and the writings of the Holy Fathers of the Church, considers homosexuality as a sin, because this is fundamentally contrary to the notion of family or marriage based on the union, a man, 2, 24) ”, the Patriarchate said in the conunc.
