Machine Translation:
(Romfea) - An unexpected meeting was held today, Thursday 9 May, on the sidelines of the events of the end of the Second World War in the Ukrainian capital.
Metropolitan Epiphanius and Metropolitan Onufrios had Christian embrace, exchanging greetings, causing the surprise of the attendees.
Although there was some embarrassment, there is no doubt that both Metropolitan Onoufrius and Metropolitan Epiphanius kept the formulas.
Original Greek:
Μια απρόσμενη συνάντηση πραγματοποιήθηκε σήμερα, Πέμπτη 9 Μαϊου στο περιθώριο των εκδηλώσεων για τη λήξη του Β’ Παγκοσμίου Πολέμου στην Ουκρανική πρωτεύουσα.
Ο Μητροπολίτης Επιφάνιος και ο Μητροπολίτης Ονούφριος είχαν χριστιανικό ασπασμό, ενώ αντάλλαξαν χαιρετισμούς προκαλώντας την έκπληξη των παρευρισκομένων.
Αν και υπήρξε κάποια αμηχανία δεν υπάρχει αμφιβολία ότι τόσο ο Μητροπολίτης Ονούφριος, όσο και ο Μητροπολίτης Επιφάνιος, τήρησαν τους τύπους.

ReplyDeleteNice to see both of them acknowledging the other's humanity. This is, of course, expected from Met. Onuphriy, but a nice surprise from Epiphanius... Looking each other in the eyes is always a good starting point in conflict resolution.
Timmy, you took the words out of my mouth. Metropolitan Onufry is greeting the other man as a human being in the image and likeness of God. No doubt some naive persons will take this to mean he recognizes the schematics.
ReplyDeleteSuch does break the tradition of being human.
