It condemns the attacks against politicians, on the occasion of slap which her MP accepted New Democracy, Angeliki Delikari, in a temple in Kavala, o Archbishop Hieronymos.
“The Church is love”
As he said after being asked by journalists,“the Church does not take revenge” although he added that “he loves (s.s. the Church), but he does not leave his positions”.
“THE Church is love. She complains, she says her positions, she is firm in them, but we must not forget that love is the one that is above all, as well as kindness and tolerance,” said Mr. Hieronymos initially, as reported by ERT to complete:
“These incidents are also due to education of each and to the effect of some people who perceive many things of her Church as revenge. The Church, however, does not take revenge. Lovesbut she does not leave her positions”.
Niki suspended the party status of the woman who slapped the MP
The party Win requests the removal from his ranks and the referral to the Disciplinary Office of the woman who attacked the ND MP.
The announcement of Victory
In particular, with an official announcement the victory reports about the incident: “NIKI was informed of the reprehensible incident that took place in the church of Agios Konstantinos and Eleni in the Pulideio nursing home, at the end of the Divine Liturgy at the expense of the deputy of the New Democracy in Kavala Angeliki Delikaris. It is an unthinkable act and unacceptable.
The fact that it took place in a Holy Temple demonstrates the non-ecclesiastical attitude of the perpetrator and her lack of respect for the Principles of Victory to justify her removal from the ranks of Victory which had already taken place long ago.
NIKI immediately confirmed the suspension of its party membership and its immediate referral to the Disciplinary Committee with a question of deletion. The pain we all feel over the passage of the disgraceful gay marriage law is as much a given as the hypocritical religious zeal displayed of late by those who voted for it. NIKI as a genuine people’s democratic movement will oppose both legally and democratically and any other actions of pro-feminism or violence are from the wicked and have nothing to do with morals and thinking of VICTORY”.
The parties condemn the attack against her
The reaction of the parties was caused by the attack by an unknown woman that the ND MP received on Sunday morning. Angeliki Delikari at the end of divine function at the church Saint Constantine and Helen in I’m riding.
According to proininews.gr, the woman approached her Member of Parliamenthe cursed her afterwards he slapped her.
The episode started after priest’s report on attendance at divine service of Mrs. Delikaris. Then the woman began to shout, on the occasion of the law for the same-sex couples and finally slapped the MP.
ND: “Division has nothing to do with religion”
“We condemn unequivocally the attack received by the New Democracy member of Kavala, Angeliki Delikari, inside a holy temple. Behaviors of hatred and division can have nothing to do with faith and religion.
They prove that parties that invoke love and Christian reason – elements that concern Greek society as a whole – aim only at exploitation. Finally, we consider it self-evident and imperative the condemnation of the attack by all parties”.
SYRIZA: Such attitudes harm democracy itself
We condemn unequivocally the attack received by New Democracy MP Angeliki Delikari inside a holy temple.
Such behaviors they aim to bullying of freedom consciousness of parliamentarians and harm democracy itself.
New Left: The separation of church and state is necessary
We condemn the attack received by ND MP Angeliki Delikari in a church in her constituency by a candidate in the previous national elections with the “Niki” party. Incidents like this, but also the attitude of the Church itself towards members of parliament who voted in favor of marriage and adoption for same-sex couples confirm our position for the necessary separation of state and church. This is the reform the country needs. To block the bigotry and in the action of ecclesiastical and para-ecclesiastical mechanisms with political aims
