Maidan chaplain: Ukraine is not a Christian country
"I must say, if you look at this throughout thousand years after the Baptism of Ukraine-Rus, although during this time a lot has changed, the society is not at all Christian, and even carols or greetings for Easter or Christmas like "Christ is Risen"," Truly Risen " – these are only folklore. One can see the same communists, pioneers, Komsomol members who can now go to church with an Easter basket at due time ... we live currently in a post-communist society rather than in a Christian one. It’s too early to say that we are a Christian country,” said the priest.
The priest of Kamianets-Podilsky diocese of the Roman Catholic Church Nikolay Myshovsky is an editor-in-chief of the site and magazine "Credo". He was an active chaplain during the Maidan, nowadays he is often engaged as a chaplain in Donbass.
