Ukrainian publishing house Arc.ua, founded by former Health Minister Ulana Suprun, has released and is actively promoting American author Sam Harris’s The End of Faith, a book sharply critical of Christianity and other religions.
According to the publisher’s description, Harris presents religion as a force that has historically shaped human thought and challenges the taboo surrounding critical scrutiny of religious doctrines. He calls for rejecting “supernatural authorities” in matters of morality and adopting a secular humanist approach grounded in neuroscience and philosophy.
The publication drew criticism even from Right Sector, which had previously supported Suprun. In a Facebook post, the group noted that Suprun grew up in a Christian family and worked at the Ukrainian Catholic University, yet her publishing house is now promoting a book it described as anti-Christian.
Suprun had previously faced criticism after commenting on the situation of LGBT people in U.S. churches and urging Ukrainians to support that agenda.
As the UOJ reported, officials outlined their vision for the Lavra in 2051, describing it as a “center of political thought.”
