WHAT signed the "cultural figures"?
So, there was another significant event in our "cultural" life.More than a hundred "cultural" and okolokulturnyh figures signed a letter with a wish to liberate "the lost sheep" of the group with a nasty called "Pussy Riot" from the dungeons, where they do not place, because they (leaders) believe that they have not committed anything criminal,but merely "we sang and prayed" in the designated place, ie in the temple.Anything goes - and "mercy for the fallen," and calls for compassion towards the "poor girl", which besides, there are children suffering from the absence of the mother.
curious composition of these figures.The big names of the talented or simply scandalous artists will be typed on the strength of a half or two dozen, the rest proudly call themselves filmmakers, singers, actors, musicians and others for whom culture is nothing more than a term with vague outlines, but how do you want to express themselvesand stand next to the loud name, and perhaps the use of what will be, and what a reason - it does not matter.
main postulate of the letter is as follows:
«Girls no one was killed, robbed, did not commit violence, not destroyed and stole other people's property.Russia - a secular state, and no anti-clerical actions if they do not fall under article of the Criminal Code, can not be the cause of prosecution. "
And here you are wrong, gentlemen.Violence has been, and will not necessarily be physical.Violence against spirituality much more abominable, and they defiled the Temple.Just do not need to juggle and do casuistry.Do not equate Orthodox Church and Patriarch Kirill, between the Orthodox Church and the ministers of the church.Orthodox Church - is developed over the centuries a system of moral and spiritual values of the Russian people, whether you like it or not.And do not spit on it and trample on, or put vile experiments to test for tolerance.The Orthodox Church is very tolerable, not as an example to others, but not indefinitely.Your reference to the Criminal Code - is cynicism.No one, even the most recent freak, would dream to dance or to fuck on graves of their ancestors.This prevents any item of the Criminal Code, or is one of the immutable moral norms on which rests (while still holding) company?Shall I bring to the Criminal Code, was to "cause to prosecute?"But the fact that the Russian judicial system was in a difficult situation - it is really so.Not in the sense that their punishment "compromises the Russian judicial system and undermines trust in government institutions in general," as famously expressed by Andrei Konchalovsky, and that the system was not ready to react to cleverly planned and prepared provocation involvingpoor girls as pawns.And, to think many moves ahead.So the analogy with chess game, and win-win.Judge for yourself.
Option 1. The authorities did not react and let down all the brakes, because there is no relevant article in the Criminal Code?Well, it means that you can continue to spoil (why - it's a different story).And the excuse is already there - had not responded, so it is possible.
Option 2. The government responded harshly.Better.Now you can safely raise the howl of the whole of Europe - ah, ah, the arbitrariness of the authorities!Oh, oh - "poor girl" in the dungeons!And now these merzavki - prisoner of conscience and the unfortunate victims of Russian lawlessness.Next step - get a face-down "of culture and art," let the waves diverge on the masses: so if they have signed, so ... What's the next step?Infuriated crowd stormed the court building?Well, and so on ... Moreover, all have been used techniques of waste.Hardly that - violence for political reasons, the victim of arbitrariness, and ran to complain to your favorite West, anywhere - OSCE.PACE, Amnesty International, again, the Strasbourg Court has, well, for the full set only the Hague Tribunal is not enough.Apparently overlooked.
Again, familiar from the Soviet era system of public response: "We, the workers of the factory, then ...," "we, workers of collective farm fields-so ..." We, workers of culture and art ... ".The main thing that has a bunch more, so look respectable.What is important - is, for someone to hide and not specifically to ask someone with a pile demand.But it would be interesting to know where the shoe pinches.After all, somebody has thought out and personally wrote the appeal, or the fruit of collective creativity?Someone suggested that it is the first sign?But the name of the author or the mastermind of all this action we hardly know, most likely, it is not in the signatory.But there is a group of one hundred and fifty "figures" which calculates the pressure on the court, and that reason is not made in the same friendly team with condemnation of what happened in the Temple.Why is that?According to them nothing special happened.And now it is necessary to protect.
very sincerely respected me and Oleg Basilashvili appeals to Pushkin, but does not know exactly how many girls danced in the church.In fact, the five, except that two of them somewhere zapropastilis.Maybe he had not seen the ill-fated movie?It is likely as it is likely that he would get up from the bench, if I knew that with him proudly sit down Alibasov, some kind Vasya Oblomov with Roma Beast and left B-2 for the company.For Ulitskaia they simply victims of ignorance and lawlessness.With lawlessness is clear, it is ours.And whose ignorance?They, too, or ours?Mr. Arbatov - humanity, "he comes from Bohemia," the church statement said ordinary performances and "knows that the girl was moving."Maybe he knows, and who are they moving?For Viktyuk everything is easy - the very situation he cares the least (an interesting approach - do not care about the trick in the church, do not care about the feelings of believers, all do not care), but put "poor girls" is not necessary, because they "just singing songs."But that's not all in our cultural life.At Mana, the incident at all is controversial, because "this kind of action has long been a classic public art».Shares of some kind?The desecration of the temple?Bullying of faith?Do not tell Mr. Manský country in which it is a classic and where it is encouraged?"What is now doing with Pussy Riot, - it is inexplicable and irrational, is absurd, it does not fit into any logic, it is impossible to understand," - he exclaims.And what did they do it efficiently?It is not absurd and fit in your logic?You can understand it?You what culture or art belong?But that's not all.Kirill Serebrennikov earnestly trying to convince that the true cause of speech in the church of the "poor girls" were to announce in a loud voice "of no confidence of society leadership of the ROC, a fusion of government and the church, the hypocrisy of the government and the Church, about the terrible schism within society,which encourages the authorities ... It is in this was their mission - and how contemporary artists and jesters, and as citizens and patriots. "No more no less.Sorry, but after these passages about health is awkward to ask.And since you're willing to pay for the continuation and assured that "they will continue the activities of artists," is an excellent choice to implement your intentions.Wait until their release (or, if in a hurry, pick another similar group), and brought them together with Mr. Manske tour - first let poplyashut with the chorus, "Down with the Pope" in a church somewhere in Europe, then it is possible to bring their factthat will, for example, to the Wailing Wall.You can just dance in the open air, even without a chorus.If it succeeds, near Mecca.There you will find a huge success, even without dancing.Upon returning home to Russia (if you really think the Russia of his house, which can not spoil), you will fully appreciate the kindness and patience of Russian Orthodoxy.And enough already to poke a finger in the Patriarch and his watch.In the end it is all of the ROC.Just as the Pope - the Catholic Church.You will not argue that the Pope walks with a stick and in rags among his flock, and that his hand was a Chinese-made watches for a few dollars.
Finally.Lord "of culture and art."Before you sign anything, decide for themselves everyone that Russia is for you - the house in which it is impossible to spoil, imperfect as it may be, or dirty tavern, in which everything is possible.What is your Russian people - the people with their concerns, challenges, joy, sorrow, and who needs your skill (only genuine, sincere), or cattle, which can be fed any rubbish you have created, and which also pay for it.What and whose spiritual and moral values you profess that you are Orthodox faith (if you do have attitude to it) without any attributes that you may not like it, but simply - Vera.It's part of your spirituality, or someone else's trash, which can be spit.Decide depends on your reputation, respect, attitude as people whose opinion may be considering.Otherwise - do not blame me, you people can curse and reject.Prior to endure indefinitely and it will not be wiped away.
Approximately the conversation suggested to hold Oleg Basilashvili with the girls.But there it would be completely useless.And you?
