Friday, July 14 - Wow, what a celebration... The XNUMXth of July Uprising and the Fall of the Bastille and all the European libertarian achievements... I felt like, in spite of this fervor, standing in front of some temple in Podgorica...
Like that of Salman Momika in front of the mosque in Stockholm, only I wouldn't care if the building is religious, state or party...
And why wouldn't I, it was said, burn anyone's holy book... Not even a profane one, because each of them can be someone's holy book...
I just wanted to scream out of pain, democracy, long live Comrade Koba and his censorship... Of course without bullets, summary judgment and sending to colder regions...
What would we do? Nothing new, only this time the primitivism of the holders of the 2020 Memorial got on my head.
- Shame on you, you fat cow, where did you get the right to compare criminals from Skye and Patriarch Porfirio! - I was awakened at dawn on July 82th, on the XNUMXnd anniversary of the first insurgent rifle, by the first congratulatory message from the "liberators" of Montenegro from August XNUMXth.
I started to answer - I always give all readers, including this one, three rounds of forum for a decent dialogue - as I was not comparing individual personalities, but the works of their organizations...
But it is a futile task to match the beliefs of "believers" with facts.
Besides, he was at least partly right... There really was no comparison, not at least when it comes to victims.
Because behind the political-mafia patrons of the group from Skye - for now, because they are still looking for some burnt corpses - a little more than 50 dead.
And after the wars of the nineties - whose political and spiritual sponsor, at odds with the Serbian and Montenegrin states, was the Serbian Orthodox Church - slightly less than 150.000.

Saturday, July 15 - The day after the holiday, and all of a sudden - as if on command or without as - bursts of God-fearing people went in defense of the most holy Mother Church and her identical Son...
This time from other people's profiles, unavailable for mine delete ...
Which meant that there is no end to the misery of fb believers...
Not even pictures, ever since the former secular regime, four years ago, tried to resolve property disputes with its own and the church's spiritual Father...
With the fact that at that time this religiousness in the defense of the church was expressed drastically more politely than today...
Well, now, the devil will know whether the modesty at that time was a consequence of respect for the leader of that regime, which even the recent "believers" swore by...
Or just proof of the traditionally Orthodox heroic fear of the master...
Be that as it may, glory be to God, today even their spirituality was not to be thrown away...
- A fat cow, shut up! God sees everything.
- They didn't want to bury you, the commissariat broke up, you know what God follows to commissariats and cam...arches.
- You won't be long, one cattle.
- Do you remember, pig, I promised you on September 5 that I would...
I remember, who wouldn't remember such a "believer"! Uh, on the eve of that fuss in Cetinje, he was very detailed in the elaboration of the above-mentioned promise...
That without anesthesia they will first tear off my fingers, so that I can no longer write...
And then, just as alive, cut off my legs so I can't run away...
He also had some cold-blooded ideas about my "fat stomach", but they are too difficult for my decent readers to digest...
However, it didn't particularly annoy me at the time, because I received similar but slightly more polite threats that September from some "comites" because of the same column.
Deciphering this "secret of secrets", I came to an enlightenment: if both sides are this furious, it will be that my perception of the Svetosava-Belvedere conflict is completely objective.
* * *
Sunday, July 16 - For objectivity in the last column, unfortunately, I do not yet have mutual confirmation.
From the "religious" side, greetings and congratulations were still coming today... In truth, less and less, which would have pleased me if I had not been demoted from the rank of cowgirl to a sow.
Some of those human organs, which it is inappropriate to name either because of the sanctity of celibacy or because of the secular column, were still in circulation.
And that in Vuk's vocabulary, but very sensitively, in both genders...
In the meantime, both my real and Facebook friends reported to me about comments from the profile that are not available to me.
Two of them also took serious pedagogical and educational measures. In vain, but thanks to Dejan and Svetlana...
To cut a long story short, it was the day of the uprising of the "believing" bashibozuk... And a holiday for those who join the uprisings only by discreetly liking them.
Just in case they sometimes, and often again, change the board.
The other side from the column, desirable for assessing my objectivity, was not heard alive...
It seems that, in contrast to the Porfirians, I was correctly understood by the Skajians to whom the networks are still available and the political, judicial, prosecutorial and police persons connected to them. That's why, I guess, everyone agreed...
Other officials, state, party and church, did not understand anything.
Not only from the extensive column which, along with me, is the least important in today's story. Because its cause is not a misunderstanding between a journalist and some readers, but a chasm between two worldviews.
For three decades now, Montenegro has been unable to get out of that precipice...
Because its church, state and party officials cannot or will not understand even a few short articles of the Constitution that refer to the obligation of complete separation of the worldly and the spiritual.
* * *
Monday, July 17 - And from those who will not or cannot understand the meaning of those two or three articles of one legal act, it is difficult to expect them to understand the significance of the separation of state and church and all the civilizational achievements that followed it.
And that it is high time to put an end to that unnatural relationship - interest or emotional, whatever it may be.
This, in principle, means that the state must not protect any religious community like a white eagle... Or a ferocious eagle, is a less inappropriate comparison...
In details, especially those that concern the various foundations of the divided Montenegrin society, that principle obliges the Serbian Church to once and for all stop imposing its holiness on atheists, agnostics and all others who have no faith in it. Or, simply, they are not interested in any religion...
In an even shorter version, the SPC is - or can be - a holy place for its believers.
For everyone else, the SPC is - or can be - the same as any other social organization, be it religious, political, cultural, sports or any other...
And not that it can, but must be subject to the judgment of the general public.
And that public has no obligation to believe it.
On the contrary, every individual has not only a constitutional but also a civilized right to question every word and every deed of the officials of that organization, in the past and today.
And not only those organizations, but also any other, be it church, political, cultural, sports or any...
The Constitution also gives these individuals the right to choose their shrines individually... For some it is a banner with four glasses, for some it is a flag with six rainbow colors, but everyone has the same right to choose a shrine.
That right of some is limited only by the right of all others not to consider other people's holy places as their own.
I'm taking too long, but I'm just too deep...
First, because the axioms stopped being proven by the Ancient Greeks two millennia ago.
Second, but not in importance, because this domiciliary terror of belief over facts has been going on for thirty-three years.
Even Jesus couldn't last longer...

Tuesday, July 18 - If he is extradited to Iraq, Salvan Momik will not face crucifixion for objective reasons, the state religion there is Islam and 97 percent are Muslims.
And what did he do?
At a protest in front of the main mosque in Stockholm, he burned the Koran... Or, as some media reported, several pages from that book.
Saints, for all the Muslims of the world. It is their right to consider her as such.
For Salman Momika, the Qur'an is clearly not sacred. And that is his right.
It is the right of the United Nations Human Rights Council to protect those rights, but also the obligation to protect the rights of everyone in all countries. And not only those who have a specific majority at a specific moment.
And yes, I'm glad that the Government decided that Montenegro should remain in the minority this time...
Especially because of those religious and party organizations that protest only when someone touches their shrines...
* * *
Wednesday, July 19 - And what does Salvan Momika's case have to do with ours?
And the kind, both concern the misunderstanding of the elementary right to the attitude that what is sacred to some does not have to be sacred to all.
Many books have been burned around the world since the United Nations was founded, but there have never been as many resolutions condemning it.
More precisely, I, unfortunately, did not find any on this Google...
But, much more regrettably, I found a book of resolutions from the nineties, when more than one book was burned, in whole or in part.
But one whole country - Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Do you know what was written in the first UN resolution, passed on Christmas 1992?
- The importation of weapons into Bosnia and Herzegovina is prohibited - that's what it said...
To everyone? Well, that's good... For there to be no war...
No, let there be war!
How do I know?
Well, from the date of the embargo resolution.
On the eve of the new year 1992, seven days before the adoption of the resolution, all heavy weapons: tanks, armored vehicles, mortars, etc. - with the same generals, colonels, majors and captains - was exported from Serbia and Montenegro.
And made available to the Serbs from Bosnia and Herzegovina who, thanks to this import, already formed the Army of the Serbian Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina on May 12.
Muslims/Bosniaks, for whom the rest of the borders of that country were also sacred, were imported - an embargo...
So much for shrines...
And the right to their defense...
