His Beatitude Metropolitan Onufry of Kiev and All Ukraine

In his sermon during a liturgy at the Transfiguration Cathedral of Bolgrad, His Beatitude Metropolitan Onufry of Kiev and All Ukraine said that the lie spread by the mass media is a poison, reports the UOC Information and Education Department.

The Primate said, "Today the world is flooded with lies."

“A lie floods a person through the Internet, through television, through various mass media. A lie, like poison, falls once, twice on the skin and, penetrating inside, kills a person,” said the Archpastor.

For this reason, His Beatitude gave his flock spiritual advice: "Spend less time online, watch TV less, and indulge in prayer more."

As the UOJ reported, earlier His Beatitude Metropolitan Onufry of Kiev and All Ukraine explained that only by reading the Holy Scriptures one can acquire spiritual criteria with which one can tell the truth from a lie.
