The authors of the initiative are atamans and Cossacks of the Samara District Cossack Army. Inspired by the experience of the Chechen Republic, where Ramzan Kadyrov ordered to accept representatives of the Muslim clergy to the state of schools, they wrote a letter to the local deputy from United Russia Dmitry Sivirkin and asked to be made in Samara the same way. “We are sure that in all schools of the Samara region, following the example of Chechnya, it is necessary to introduce the head teacher’s positions for educational work. They should be occupied by clergymen of the Samara and Syzran Metropolis, as well as teachers who have passed special teaching courses of“ the foundations of Orthodox culture, ” the appeal said.
Dmitry Sivirkin liked the idea. Last Friday, she was already discussed by the Committee on Culture, Sports and Youth Policy of the Samara Provincial Duma. Of the eight deputies present, seven supported the initiative.
In Chechnya, school was connected to IslamIn all schools of the Chechen Republic, the post of head teacher will be occupied by religious mentors - Alima. The corresponding decree in the Ministry of Education and Science of Chechnya will be issued in the coming days. >>> |
Sivirikin is known for recently asked to remove the remains of great -grandmother Udaltsov from the Kremlin wall. He was also the initiator of amendments to the regional laws against the "propaganda of pedophiles and homosexuality" among minors.
We contacted the deputy and asked why he needed clergymen in schools.
- How did the idea of such a project arise?
In September, Ramzan Kadyrov gathered a meeting and announced the introduction of the position of spiritual mentors of schools. Our Cossacks really liked this idea of Kadyrov. These will be representatives of the clergy, people with religious education. The Cossacks of the Samara District Cossack Society turned to me with a proposal to carry out such an event in the Samara region following the example of the Chechen Republic.
-What will be the responsibility of the head teacher-servant?
Here it is necessary to pose a question wider. It will not be just the head teacher in the previous understanding of the word. Ramzan Kadyrov raises the question very correctly: our schools should primarily educate people of spiritual and moral, patriots of their homeland. What do we have now? School is such a soulless factory for the production of more or less educated adolescents who pass the exam and go somewhere there. Children are pumped up with knowledge, and the spiritual component is much more important, but at present it is almost absent. We prepare specialists. But what is a specialist? A specialist is a product in the labor market. He learned here, and then where they gave more money - he left there. To China or to America, for example. And we do not want our children to be brought up as a product. Now, first of all, patriots who understand where they live, in which country. They should know about their roots, should understand that they live in a certain civilizational and religious space.
- And it is precisely the priests that are needed for this?
It is important to understand what priorities we have. Cossacks believe (both I and many others think so) that spiritual and moral education is in the first place before special disciplines. And people who understand and understand this should do this. These can be representatives of the clergy with pedagogical education and graduates of seminaries. It is conscientious with the Samara diocese and the institution of advanced training of workers we have trained about 1,500 new teachers for the course "Fundamentals of Orthodoxy". You can take these people for a new position. I do not know details yet. I sent a letter to Ramzan Kadyrov with a request to share the methodological recommendations.
- What about children from Muslim or, for example, atheistic families?
Do you think there are no atheists or Orthodox in Chechnya? Eat. You never know what atheists want or do not want. Kadyrov does correctly. He does not pay attention to these atheists at all. He knows that children should be with faith in God. Otherwise, in a year and a half we will come to such a situation when we have only scumbags through the territory of the Russian Federation will walk.
As for the multiconfessionality - please. This issue is solved very simply. It is not necessary to save on children: you also need a Muslim or Jewish head teacher - let them be. Mentors will educate not only children, but also school teachers, and the so-called atheist-replacements. After decades of the godless Soviet power, we have a scorched land. What can, for example, a teacher of literature or the Russian language, if he does not know anything about it? A person, torn from the faith of his ancestors, cannot possess any spirituality. So let them teach your Russian language, where commas should be put, and specialists are engaged in spiritual and moral education.
- From your point of view, atheists cannot be considered educated and cultural people?
They can be educated, but cultural - no. Culture is a civilizational phenomenon. We have our own culture in Russia, our own civilization. If a person understands this, he cannot be non -religious. All our culture has grown around the rod of the Orthodox faith. Islam, too, of course, played a large role in the formation of Russian civilization. I tell you directly: an unbeliever cannot be a patriot, he cannot be cultural, he cannot love his homeland. He will always be a cosmopolitan. And what is it, we already looked when in the 17th year we built worldwide happiness for proletarians of all countries.
- Recently, there were many stories in which individual clergymen and the church did not look very attractive.
You are talking about some stories discrediting the church, I do not know such stories. If you mean dances in the Cathedral of Christ the Savior, then you ask a provocative question. These girls have discredited themselves, not the church.
- I mean, for example, an accident with Abbot Timofei - who was drunk on a very expensive car arranged a large accident in the center of Moscow.
Anyone can get into an accident. All people are subject to some chance. Understand that the more hostile for Russia promotes this, the more important it is to show the child the whole beauty of our religion, its completeness, perfection. The more chernukhi transmit along the "zombie", the more important it is that there is a normal source of information.
