Our “Assembly” is devoted in the first place to a contemporary young man and we’ll cover topics, which are especially interesting for a youth. That doesn’t mean that we won’t listen to people of other views, those who doubt or proclaim themselves atheists. On the contrary our magazine is devoted to them, as well as to those who have already crossed the threshold of church. We want to become such an assembly, which will be the place to answer the questions that separate us.

267 rara avis -contemplations on the orthodox mission and the last orthodox congress

Long ago orthodox Christians forgot about their orthodox mission. Our ancestors fasted with zeal and patiently stood long hours in church, but it didn’t dawn on them, that their neighbors, who were not Christians, should also learn Orthodox faith. They used to say: “ Russian faith for the Russians, and Tatar for the Tatars.” The society treated all deviations from this “standard” as abnormal and conspicuous. Continued…
