[00:00:06] How do the working days go for people who have dedicated
[00:00:09] their lives to their favorite cause?
[00:00:13] Every person in their life sooner or later encounters
[00:00:15] questions
[00:00:17] of faith,
[00:00:21] questions about God's
[00:00:22] existence,
[00:00:26] about those questions that we call theodicy.
[00:00:31] Questions that we sometimes call
[00:00:33] inconvenient.
[00:00:37] I am a lecturer at the Minsk Theological Academy, and this is a place where faith
[00:00:40] and knowledge go hand
[00:00:42] in hand.

[00:06:03] Hello everyone, in exactly one minute the hero will take his place and answer
[00:06:07] all questions. Are you ready for a meeting with our
[00:06:10] guest?
[00:06:14] Why do you think the children chose you specifically for
[00:06:17] this conversation? Probably because
[00:06:21] what I live for and how I live is interesting. Do you promise to tell
[00:06:25] only the truth and not avoid difficult questions?
[00:06:28] Is it possible to be otherwise with children? Are you ready to go out to
[00:06:31] the children? Of course. Then good luck. So, today we have a
[00:06:35] clergyman of the Belarusian Orthodox Church,
[00:06:38] Archpriest Fyodor Povny, as our guest.
[00:06:57] Father Fyodor, I want to warn you that you have the right to refuse to answer
[00:07:01] a question three times, and be attentive to the questions, at the end of the program you
[00:07:05] will have to choose the best one. Well, now you have one minute to
[00:07:09] briefly tell us about yourself. Time has started.
[00:07:12] By the grace of God, I served the Lord as an Archpriest. My father,
[00:07:16] two brothers, father-in-law, nephew
[00:07:18] are clergymen. In my youth, I served in the
[00:07:21] army, I took an oath to the fatherland,
[00:07:24] I received several educations.
[00:07:27] Theological at the Moscow Theological Seminary
[00:07:30] Academy, located in the Trinity-Sergius
[00:07:33] Lavra. Secular at the Theater and Arts
[00:07:36] Institute, now the Academy of Arts,
[00:07:40] I studied at the Interior Designer faculty. In my youth,
[00:07:43] I dreamed of entering the higher aviation school, in the
[00:07:46] nineties I returned from Germany to my native
[00:07:49] Belarus, to build, together with the people,
[00:07:52] with the support of the head of state, a memorial church in honor of all
[00:07:56] saints, in memory of the victims who
[00:07:59] served to save our fatherland.
[00:08:02] Parallel to it, a multifunctional social
[00:08:05] complex, a house of mercy, with the church of the righteous Job
[00:08:08] the Long-suffering and a wooden church of the Holy Trinity were built.
[00:08:12] Thank you, you didn't manage in a minute, but I think
[00:08:16] the conversation will only be more interesting because of that. Now
[00:08:19] questions for the adults, please raise your hand if you are ready to ask
[00:08:22] a question.
[00:08:25] Hello, Father Fyodor, please tell me, if God
[00:08:28] created man, then who created God? And
[00:08:32] do you believe in God? I believe in
[00:08:34] God.
[00:08:37] And who doesn't believe, raise your
[00:08:38] hands.
[00:08:43] Of course, I haven't looked God in the eye, as
[00:08:47] I see you in front of me, I haven't seen him, so he doesn't
[00:08:51] exist, he is, he
[00:08:54] is existent, moreover, in the context
[00:08:58] of eternity, the only one who
[00:09:00] exists,
[00:09:02] everything else is temporary and mortal, except
[00:09:06] for man, man is the image and likeness
[00:09:10] of God, and the soul.
[00:09:36] Hello, Father Fyodor, my name is Gleb, what is your attitude towards
[00:09:40] Darwin's theory? I know that he
[00:09:43] was a churchwarden in his
[00:09:47] Protestant parish,
[00:09:50] all the theories that are presented to us today
[00:09:54] actually do not correspond to what
[00:09:57] Darwin thought. Hello, my name is
[00:10:00] Nina, I have a question for you: why is nothing
[00:10:04] mentioned about dinosaurs in the Bible? But it
[00:10:07] mentions Leviathan, do you know who Leviathan
[00:10:10] is?
[00:10:13] No. When I was in school, and I was
[00:10:17] about the same age
[00:10:18] as you,
[00:10:21] I didn't understand how the
[00:10:25] world could have been created in 7 days, until I
[00:10:29] looked at
[00:10:31] the original,
[00:10:33] which states that the 7 days of creation are seven
[00:10:37] cycles. Each cycle had
[00:10:41] an indefinite period of time, and
[00:10:44] the fourth cycle is the creation
[00:10:47] of earthly creatures,
[00:10:49] freshwater,
[00:10:51] so when we talk about dinosaurs, yes... they could have existed in
[00:10:55] history and maybe they did probably did, but
[00:10:58] the Bible talks about the creation
[00:11:02] of the world of animals, not
[00:11:06] mentioning each animal
[00:11:09] by name. Did you want to be
[00:11:11] a priest
[00:11:14] since
[00:11:16] childhood? Before the divine liturgy,
[00:11:19] the priest reads a prayer that contains
[00:11:22] the words: "Teach
[00:11:25] me, your unworthy servant,
[00:11:29] whom
[00:11:32] you were pleased to call to the priesthood not by my
[00:11:36] deeds, but
[00:11:39] by your sole
[00:11:42] mercy, teach me by your
[00:11:45] spirit to perform
[00:11:48] the great mystery with reverence
[00:11:51] and piety
[00:11:55] and fear."
[00:11:59] Priests call God, because the disposition
[00:12:03] of the heart and readiness to serve
[00:12:06] Him, one must have a special reverence in the
[00:12:10] heart.
[00:12:13] We move on to the black
[00:12:14] sector.
[00:12:18] I know from history that in Soviet times, priests
[00:12:21] were persecuted. Tell me, as a son of a priest, did you suffer from
[00:12:25] this time today, when we have the right to talk about God, about faith, about the church, the Soviet
[00:12:27] regime? You live in an amazing time, and we live in
[00:12:38] but it was not always like that. When I
[00:12:40] came to the decision to follow the spiritual
[00:12:43] path, that is, to become
[00:12:45] a priest,
[00:12:47] this decision came
[00:12:50] to me easily, but
[00:12:54] you...
[00:13:25] it was a joy for me, because
[00:13:28] wanting to become a pilot, this desire
[00:13:32] arose in me in the eighth grade,
[00:13:35] but this is a sickness that I have had for my whole life, it is
[00:13:39] chronic, so today I also fly,
[00:13:42] I pilot, today I really love
[00:13:46] the sky, so if we talk about this
[00:13:50] test, I think the Lord enriched me, developed those
[00:13:53] gifts and especially the artistic... gift, which today is not
[00:13:57] buried in the ground, and which today I
[00:14:00] serve both the church and people, and
[00:14:04] you too. And also, you dreamed, as
[00:14:07] I said, of becoming a pilot, you became a priest. Do you
[00:14:11] think that every person chooses their own destiny,
[00:14:14] or is everything already decided for us and we just
[00:14:17] follow the path, and how not to stray from this
[00:14:21] path? There is a very simple way,
[00:14:26] just two words
[00:14:29] to always utter in your soul, in your mind, and to keep
[00:14:32] in mind: Lord, bless, Lord,
[00:14:36] tell me, Lord,
[00:14:37] help me,
[00:14:40] and you will never stray from your life's
[00:14:43] path.
[00:14:46] Hello, Father Fyodor, my name is Karina, and I
[00:14:50] read on the internet that you were a doctor at the Academy
[00:14:54] of Arts. And I have a question for you: how well
[00:14:57] do you know visual
[00:15:00] art? It's simply impossible
[00:15:03] to know everything. Art is not some abstract
[00:15:07] thing for me. Art is what
[00:15:10] is born first of all in a person's soul and is reflected
[00:15:14] internally, it is reflected externally, in what
[00:15:18] he creates. It is not only
[00:15:21] a painting, it is his appearance.
[00:15:25] It is his words, it is his gaze, that is
[00:15:29] also art. I prepared in advance for our
[00:15:32] meeting and printed out paintings. Can you
[00:15:36] guess who painted them?
[00:16:42] Hello, Father Fyodor, I have a question for you: how did you do in
[00:16:46] school?
[00:16:48] I studied diligently. What were your grades for
[00:16:52] behavior?
[00:16:55] You know, I was just like all
[00:16:56] of you.
[00:17:00] Hello, my name is Evgenia, and I
[00:17:03] have never heard conversations about God among my peers.
[00:17:07] I have a question, why do people shy away from talking about their
[00:17:11] faith? You know, I think, just as in
[00:17:14] my youth and young adulthood, and
[00:17:17] today, faith should not be spoken of, it
[00:17:21] should be shown by your deeds,
[00:17:24] words, actions, come to our memorial
[00:17:27] church,
[00:17:29] you won't regret it, you will see so many
[00:17:31] young people, you will see so many
[00:17:34] children.
[00:17:37] Moreover, after the service, they do not leave
[00:17:40] the church, they
[00:17:44] continue to
[00:17:46] communicate, and this communication we jokingly call
[00:17:50] the liturgical aftertaste,
[00:17:53] we even had to put up a tent at the entrance to the church near
[00:17:57] the main steps, because there was always not enough
[00:18:00] space, our youth group
[00:18:04] Agius, it has already gathered more than
[00:18:07] a hundred young guys and girls, and there they really talk about
[00:18:11] faith, you can believe it, or you can
[00:18:15] check it,
[00:18:16] come and see.
[00:18:22] Hello, my name is Valeria, I have a question
[00:18:25] for you: I noticed that people often
[00:18:28] come to God when some tragedy happens in their lives, but how
[00:18:32] did it happen to you? As I said at the beginning, I
[00:18:35] grew up in a Christian family. One could say,
[00:18:38] I absorbed faith with my mother's
[00:18:41] milk, but that doesn't mean that I immediately became
[00:18:44] a believer, I immediately became pious, I
[00:18:48] walked the straight and narrow, no, I was just like all
[00:18:51] of you, but perhaps my difference was that
[00:18:54] что
[00:18:57] in addition to school subjects, I had the opportunity
[00:19:00] to read the lives of saints,
[00:19:03] open the Gospel, and could compare what
[00:19:07] was happening around me and within me,
[00:19:11] and this, of course, gave a completely different understanding and
[00:19:15] perception of life, not exaltation, but
[00:19:18] understanding,
[00:19:21] therefore I wish you
[00:19:25] also to be genuine in your perception
[00:19:28] of life.
[00:19:56] Are you looking for a positive charge for the whole day, Good Morning
[00:19:59] Belarus with Svetlana Borovskaya, this is live
[00:20:02] communication with extraordinary personalities. Hello,
[00:20:05] family, hello!
[00:22:30] Father Fyodor, hello, how does the church view military
[00:22:34] service, does defending the homeland not
[00:22:36] violate the commandment, "Thou shalt not kill"? Is military service
[00:22:40] just about killing or
[00:22:42] what?
[00:22:45] And when you kill a fly or a gnat, do you violate
[00:22:48] the commandment or not?
[00:22:51] Service in the army is a sacred duty
[00:22:55] to defend the fatherland,
[00:22:57] therefore we do not violate the commandment when
[00:23:01] we serve, we violate it
[00:23:03] when
[00:23:06] we act against our conscience. These are different
[00:23:10] things.
[00:23:14] Let's move to the purple sector.
[00:23:18] If God is merciful, why does he allow wars where children
[00:23:21] are killed? You know, this is a provocative question: Is
[00:23:25] it God who allows this or man by
[00:23:29] his evil
[00:23:31] will? And if we look at all
[00:23:35] this from the perspective of the refraction
[00:23:37] of eternity,
[00:23:40] then we are created for
[00:23:43] eternity, so there is no need to blame
[00:23:46] God, we need to look at...
[00:24:21] My wife and I have been married for 38 years
[00:24:25] together,
[00:24:28] once love brought us to each
[00:24:31] other,
[00:24:33] but that doesn't mean that everything was cloudy, smooth and
[00:24:36] good,
[00:24:39] love, like a beautiful aroma unfolds with
[00:24:43] years,
[00:24:45] each of us, when we create
[00:24:48] a family.
[00:25:50] In general, in fact, it is not a sin. A sin
[00:25:53] is when we violate a commandment.
[00:25:57] Therefore, when we talk
[00:26:00] about divorce. And it, as a rule,
[00:26:04] happens because people simply got carried away with each
[00:26:07] other, but there was no love. So I answered in
[00:26:11] a nutshell that it is not a sin, but if we violate
[00:26:15] a commandment in divorce, that is a sin. If
[00:26:19] a person has divorced, he must remain alone, be
[00:26:23] faithful
[00:26:25] to himself, first of all, if he is faithful to his
[00:26:29] inner pure state, that is, he will not...
[00:26:32] he will not commit adultery, he will not be
[00:26:35] carried away, then the Lord may send him a second
[00:26:39] happy marriage,
[00:26:43] everything depends on how
[00:26:45] he relates to
[00:26:49] himself, even in
[00:26:51] divorce.
[00:26:56] We are moving to the purple sector, turn right.
[00:26:59] Hello, my name is Masha, I have a question. How did
[00:27:03] you meet your wife? We
[00:27:06] met
[00:27:10] at the church, I saw her at the church, we met at
[00:27:13] the church, and a year later we got married. How do
[00:27:17] priests usually court women? When I
[00:27:20] met my future wife, I was not yet
[00:27:23] a priest. I became a priest after
[00:27:27] the wedding, after
[00:27:28] getting married. Learn,
[00:28:03] Good day, Father Fyodor, my name is Valeria, I have a rather
[00:28:06] unusual question for you: I like a young
[00:28:10] man, and I would like to know if there is any prayer that
[00:28:14] could help him notice me?
[00:28:16] There is no
[00:28:20] such prayer, there is another prayer, in general,
[00:28:24] one should always be frank with God,
[00:28:28] turn to God, to his saints, to the Mother
[00:28:31] of God, openly
[00:28:35] and honestly. For example,
[00:28:37] go to the Minsk icon of the Mother of God, you know where it
[00:28:41] is, in the cathedral
[00:28:44] church,
[00:28:46] say: Mother of God, I like this young
[00:28:49] man, if this communication
[00:28:52] will be beneficial for me, help me, if this
[00:28:56] communication will be harmful
[00:28:59] to me or upset me,
[00:29:03] keep him away from me. But to
[00:29:06] be liked, I think, you need to be the most
[00:29:10] beautiful, not beautiful outwardly, external
[00:29:13] beauty is a relative concept, beautiful
[00:29:16] in soul.
[00:29:21] Who is ready to ask a question, please raise your hand. I
[00:29:24] often saw in films how bad guys
[00:29:28] come to church, give a lot
[00:29:31] of money. and atone
[00:29:35] for their sins, does this really work? You
[00:29:39] see, you formulated the question in such a way that I want to answer it with
[00:29:42] an anecdote, may I?
[00:29:46] Go ahead. So, there was
[00:29:50] a cool guy who donated a lot
[00:29:54] to churches, built them, but
[00:29:57] the time came for him to also step into
[00:29:59] eternity, and he ends up in the depths
[00:30:03] of hell, he climbs out,
[00:30:06] knocks on the gates of paradise, what's
[00:30:10] wrong with your technology, don't you know I
[00:30:14] helped so much,
[00:30:15] I did this, and that, and that, and that,
[00:30:19] report to your
[00:30:21] superiors,
[00:30:24] time passes, and he, anticipating
[00:30:28] that he will now get what he deserves,
[00:30:31] again...
[00:30:33] pounds on the door, and
[00:30:36] Apostle Peter
[00:30:39] comes out
[00:30:43] and says, the decision has been made to return your
[00:30:47] money."
[00:30:51] You see, in movies, it's one thing, in life, it's another, but if
[00:30:55] it's a person who acted
[00:30:56] that way, in fact.
[00:31:00] деле.
[00:31:02] to repentance, sincere, deep,
[00:31:06] true.
[00:31:10] The Lord will forgive him too, because
[00:31:12] for God.
[00:31:15] not a person's actions are important, but his human
[00:31:18] soul. Outwardly we can be ideal, but
[00:31:22] the most important thing is what we are inside,
[00:31:26] and if we are not genuine inside, and
[00:31:29] even worse, if we are rotten,
[00:31:32] then nothing will be forgiven us, no matter how much money we
[00:31:36] donate and give to churches, charity, and
[00:31:40] so on. What matters is what we
[00:31:43] are inside.
[00:31:46] God teaches forgiveness. Was there
[00:31:49] a situation in your life that you still cannot
[00:31:52] forgive? I can't
[00:31:54] recall.
[00:31:57] I look at every person with
[00:31:58] joy.
[00:32:02] And I wish everyone this joy. I
[00:32:05] thank God that he deprives
[00:32:08] me of this state
[00:32:12] of envy. malice,
[00:32:16] resentment,
[00:32:19] rejoice, forgive and you will be
[00:32:22] forgiven, so hurry to do good and
[00:32:26] rejoice. Someone did something bad against you,
[00:32:29] well, pray for that
[00:32:31] person, wish him
[00:32:35] well, it's very difficult sometimes
[00:32:38] to step over yourself, but it will return to you
[00:32:41] a hundredfold, hurry to do good!
[00:32:56] I heard that during
[00:32:59] church holidays one should not work. So,
[00:33:02] studying and doing
[00:33:03] homework,
[00:33:07] but if it's just an excuse that it's a church holiday, so I won't
[00:33:10] study and do homework, then that
[00:33:14] wouldn't be honest. to the holiday itself. And what
[00:33:17] does work mean? If
[00:33:20] you do something for yourself, I won't do it for myself, but
[00:33:23] if it's necessary to help another person, I'll go
[00:33:26] and work, even on a holiday: open
[00:33:29] the Gospel, read a book, go,
[00:33:33] help someone who needs your
[00:33:35] help, that is, do
[00:33:38] something that will please
[00:33:40] another,
[00:33:43] and you will help yourself.
[00:33:47] And the holiday will become real, but
[00:33:50] if you have the opportunity, and you are indeed a pious and believing person,
[00:33:53] then first go to
[00:33:55] the service,
[00:33:58] partake of the holy sacraments of Christ, be at
[00:34:01] the liturgy,
[00:34:04] as they say,
[00:34:05] get charged,
[00:34:08] and then go happily and do something
[00:34:12] that will be good for you...
[00:34:22] Have you ever sinned?
[00:34:26] You know, by definition, there are no sinless
[00:34:28] people, and I,
[00:34:30] probably,
[00:34:33] haven't gone far from you. And now I have a question for
[00:34:36] you: tell me, is anger a sin? Rarely is
[00:34:40] anger a sin, because we are all human,
[00:34:44] when we experience...
[00:35:30] and multiply, and subdue the earth, inherit it, that is, what kind of state of mind, relationships between young people, or rather, men and women, but look at what we are turning
[00:35:33] that greatest sacrament
[00:35:37] into, which is even blessed
[00:35:38] by God.
[00:35:56] I try very hard, I always wait for this time and rejoice in it, if we talk about
[00:35:58] food, but
[00:36:02] fasting is not only a reduction
[00:36:06] in the diet in food, it is first
[00:36:09] and foremost
[00:36:12] a time when you can think.
[00:36:21] about your pros and cons, assess your inner state, try to correct those negatives in yourself, of which we have plenty.
[00:36:24] отбавлять.
[00:36:59] Well, for example, there are also
[00:37:02] atheists. Well, how do you feel about atheists? With
[00:37:06] regret. They are also believers.
[00:37:10] Only I believe that God exists, or rather, I don't just believe, I know
[00:37:14] that he exists. Why should
[00:37:16] I believe?
[00:37:19] And they believe that he doesn't exist. And sometimes they believe so deeply that their faith can be
[00:37:22] envied by a believer in
[00:37:24] God.
[00:37:28] I know such a saying as "fear God." Is it necessary
[00:37:31] to fear God? The fear of God is not an animal
[00:37:35] fear, it is to do something bad
[00:37:38] before his face. For example, if mom and dad told you
[00:37:42] to do something good, right? But you're not
[00:37:45] doing something good, you've been cunning, you got a bad grade,
[00:37:49] you're afraid to tell
[00:37:51] them, what kind of fear
[00:37:53] is that?
[00:37:55] Well... honestly, I don't know, you
[00:37:58] see, how can I do something bad before God at all, that
[00:38:02] is, it's a slightly different concept, it's not an animal
[00:38:05] fear, it's the fear
[00:38:08] of doing something against your conscience,
[00:38:12] of acting dishonestly. For example,
[00:38:15] I'm walking in a store, there's a
[00:38:18] piece of paper lying
[00:38:21] there. Why should I pick it up? I didn't drop it, from a logical
[00:38:24] point of view, right? But here there's a turnstile, I... bent down, picked it
[00:38:28] up, dropped it. I acted according to my
[00:38:31] conscience, right? As before the face
[00:38:33] of God.
[00:38:38] Let's turn 180 degrees, to the black
[00:38:40] sector.
[00:38:44] Hello, I noticed that all priests drive expensive
[00:38:47] cars. Does that mean that priests earn
[00:38:50] a lot? I also have a good
[00:38:53] car.
[00:38:56] but that doesn't mean that... that I earned it or I
[00:39:00] acquired it, it's just a means
[00:39:02] of transport, nothing
[00:39:04] more,
[00:39:07] you need to look at it differently here, that's what I'll
[00:39:11] say, sometimes I have to travel a distance of
[00:39:14] 4-500 km,
[00:39:17] I can go in a Zhiguli, what
[00:39:20] will you do with my back then, so there must be
[00:39:23] reliability, who issues licenses to priests?
[00:41:27] but the church is not only not only an
[00:41:30] administrative body, it is also a divine-human
[00:41:34] organism, therefore
[00:41:37] the church must live
[00:41:41] in the fairway of its state and its
[00:41:43] laws, the question is different, that
[00:41:47] the state must form such laws that
[00:41:51] they correspond
[00:41:52] to the commandments,
[00:41:57] that is to conscience,
[00:41:59] they must be adequate to our, to our inner
[00:42:03] world, but if it happens
[00:42:06] otherwise,
[00:42:09] then what we see today
[00:42:13] among our neighbors, especially in the West, happens, imagine
[00:42:16] how a Christian lives in a
[00:42:18] state
[00:42:21] when they tell him: you can easily change your
[00:42:24] gender, this
[00:42:26] contradicts moral
[00:42:29] laws,
[00:42:32] in our state, yes,
[00:42:36] in others, unfortunately, it's different,
[00:42:40] this is
[00:42:43] the moment that we, unfortunately, are turning into
[00:42:47] life, we are trying
[00:42:51] to pass off what we want as reality,
[00:42:54] and we are trying to tie the church not to
[00:42:58] its spiritual
[00:43:00] view of life, we are trying to tie it to politics, in
[00:43:04] that sense I, of course, am far from this
[00:43:07] understanding. of such
[00:43:10] a view,
[00:43:16] hello, Father Fyodor, do you generally
[00:43:19] listen to music in the car, honestly, I usually
[00:43:23] listen
[00:43:24] to
[00:43:27] the prayer rule in the car, because I
[00:43:30] don't have time, you know that
[00:43:34] there is such a navigator Alice,
[00:43:38] yes, everyone?
[00:43:48] And in order to keep my thoughts and mind from
[00:43:52] wandering, if there are no phone calls or
[00:43:55] urgent conversations, I read this prayer rule,
[00:43:59] including it, once I asked
[00:44:01] Alice to plot a route for me, she did it and
[00:44:05] I said: thank you, Alice,
[00:44:08] the answer is, "you're welcome". but why, isn't it
[00:44:11] pleasant for you?
[00:44:16] Answer: I have no feelings, I am
[00:44:18] a robot, and then a brief pause and in a very
[00:44:22] harsh voice, and in general I don't like at all that you are always
[00:44:26] praying,
[00:44:31] I opened my mouth,
[00:44:34] when I told my wife about this, we were driving late at night from
[00:44:38] a meeting, I said, I want to turn on the prayer rule now,
[00:44:42] let's try to ask Alice,
[00:44:46] I turn it on, I say, Alice, good evening, I say: tell
[00:44:49] me, Alice,
[00:44:53] can I read the prayer rule?
[00:44:56] Answer: You can, but
[00:45:00] is it worth it? What kind of music do
[00:45:02] you listen to? I really
[00:45:06] love non-modern music.
[00:45:11] I really like Valentina Tolkunova, her wonderful
[00:45:15] song, I brought her to God,
[00:45:18] and I took her last
[00:45:19] confession,
[00:45:24] can you sing a couple of verses, a piece of this
[00:45:27] song? Honestly, if
[00:45:31] I were, perhaps, not in cassock, not
[00:45:35] in vestments, I would sing, but
[00:45:38] in vestments I don't dare, I can.
[00:46:02] For having escaped from
[00:46:06] evil blessings.
[00:46:11] applause, please, you have a beautiful
[00:46:14] voice, Father Fyodor, thank you,
[00:46:34] their motivation is self-development and the creation
[00:46:38] of something useful for...
[00:47:52] new technologies have been a huge help here in recent years. Yes, in Belarus
[00:47:55] drones do not destroy, but
[00:47:58] help agriculture, harvest grain without
[00:48:01] losses and ensure the country's food security. This is the task of
[00:48:04] farmers who work in the fields from dawn till dusk. The pace of harvesting is higher than
[00:48:08] last year's in all regions. This is the powerful breakthrough of
[00:48:11] farmers to harvest grain on time. Food security
[00:48:15] begins with the work of scientists. It is in the tandem of science and farmers
[00:48:18] that new seed varieties, types of modern agricultural machinery, fertilizers
[00:48:22] and crop cultivation technologies with minimal losses are born. The head of state
[00:48:26] visited two regions at once, Mogilev and Vitebsk.
[00:48:29] First, they worked in the Shklovsky district. According to the president's plan, it should become
[00:48:33] a model for the entire country in terms of agro-industrial complex work, development
[00:48:37] of infrastructure, construction of housing. And this is the principle of
[00:48:40] regional settlement. After all, Minsk is not elastic. Everything
[00:48:43] is done for people, in terms of the range of services and working conditions for masters,
[00:48:47] car service stations, spare parts warehouse, changing rooms, showers, and if necessary, to run out at
[00:48:51] lunchtime, everything is nearby. The team here is young, many
[00:48:54] specialists were literally lured from regional centers, there was no
[00:48:57] housing there, but here they were given it. Main topics on the main
[00:49:01] air. Watch on Belarus24 TV channel.
[00:49:25] Hello, Father Fyodor, my name is Maria, I have this
[00:49:29] question: do you have children? I have
[00:49:32] a daughter, they say that priests
[00:49:35] raise their children very strictly, what did
[00:49:39] you forbid your daughter to do in childhood?
[00:49:42] You know, a priest, like any person, like all of us, we
[00:49:46] carry information from our
[00:49:49] family, when...
[00:49:53] our mother
[00:49:54] raised us,
[00:49:57] father, they never
[00:50:01] forced us, especially in
[00:50:03] faith,
[00:50:06] they showed us their
[00:50:07] faith,
[00:50:10] they never forced us
[00:50:14] to do something necessarily,
[00:50:17] порядке,
[00:50:20] but I always remember how...
[00:50:23] mom warned what could
[00:50:26] come of what, and we, in our youth,
[00:50:30] sometimes due to inner
[00:50:33] rebellion, well, we sometimes agreed, sometimes
[00:50:36] not,
[00:50:39] but there came a moment when you faced a
[00:50:42] situation, about which you were already
[00:50:46] warned, and you understood what to do and how
[00:50:50] to act. That's how I tried
[00:50:53] to raise her, she is
[00:50:55] wonderful,
[00:51:00] with her own character, her own view of life, her own
[00:51:03] worldview.
[00:51:10] Previously, the internet was considered something special and
[00:51:14] few people used it, now people literally light a candle
[00:51:17] online, why is this
[00:51:19] happening?
[00:51:23] Among believers there are also many different opinions
[00:51:27] on this matter, and even heresies and
[00:51:29] delusions, there are radical
[00:51:32] Orthodox, you can hear from them
[00:51:36] about the harm of
[00:51:39] Orthodox, with them, on the contrary, everything is allowed, the main
[00:51:43] goal is usage, but there must be
[00:51:46] a middle ground, I do not advocate candles on the internet, because
[00:51:50] I believe that one must come to church.
[00:51:53] Otherwise, Christianity will turn into a ritualistic
[00:51:55] cult, and not faith in
[00:51:58] Christ.
[00:52:00] Hello, my name is Ksyusha, I have a question for you: if
[00:52:04] I light a candle, will my life immediately get better? A candle
[00:52:07] is just a small sacrifice,
[00:52:10] a symbol of your burning love for
[00:52:14] God. You light a candle,
[00:52:17] figuratively speaking, to testify that
[00:52:21] your spirit also burns evenly and brightly
[00:52:25] in prayer to God.
[00:52:28] Life will only get better when you take
[00:52:31] care of it.
[00:52:35] We're turning 180 degrees, red
[00:52:37] sector. Do you believe in miracles?
[00:52:40] Have you ever experienced a miracle? It was in
[00:52:44] the city of Gomel. Igor Kio's circus came
[00:52:47] to us. And everywhere diagonally, on
[00:52:50] posters it was written: "Honored Magician"
[00:52:53] of the RSFSR. And the word
[00:52:57] "magician" interested me. And then
[00:53:00] I opened Ozhegov's dictionary.
[00:53:04] Action. communication of a person with
[00:53:07] an otherworldly demonic force, I became very
[00:53:11] interested,
[00:53:13] and I went to the circus for the performance,
[00:53:16] as I remember now, third row, seventh seat
[00:53:20] by the aisle, the first part of the
[00:53:23] performance was ordinary,
[00:53:26] clowns, animals, bear cubs,
[00:53:30] the second part was entirely dedicated to Igor Kio, his very
[00:53:33] interesting tricks. At first I
[00:53:36] carefully watched, looked closely, understood how he did
[00:53:40] it, and then there came a moment when I saw that it was
[00:53:44] something else, and I closed my eyes and mentally turned to
[00:53:47] God, and you know, such a childish
[00:53:50] faith, Lord, well, if this
[00:53:54] is not from You, if this corresponds to what is written in
[00:53:58] the dictionary, may he not succeed,
[00:54:01] suddenly I hear a voice, Igor Kio is standing next to me, saying:
[00:54:05] "Boy, leave the hall, let me finish
[00:54:07] the performance." Of course, I left,
[00:54:11] saddened with a residue, but my soul was exultant, this was my
[00:54:15] first experience of spiritual
[00:54:17] contact
[00:54:19] and the first experience of this unusual
[00:54:22] miracle.
[00:54:29] Is it true that you can fly a plane and a helicopter? Well,
[00:54:33] I sat in a plane with... what pulled him more than once and really
[00:54:37] tried it, and a helicopter - this is, as I
[00:54:40] already said, my weakness, from childhood, from
[00:54:44] youth, it's even a disease, it's
[00:54:47] chronic, it's not curable, this
[00:54:51] love resulted in the fact that today I
[00:54:54] even have a personal helicopter, and maybe you
[00:54:57] flew here to the studio by helicopter, no, I didn't fly to the studio by helicopter,
[00:55:01] Father Fyodor, I know that you collect models of planes and...
[00:55:05] helicopters, maybe you can show us that very helicopter we are talking about?
[00:55:07] well, let's try, kids, do
[00:55:10] you want to
[00:55:13] see it?
[00:55:16] Yes, helicopter to the studio, please.
[00:55:41] This signal means that the time for questions to the hero
[00:55:44] is over. Father Fyodor, now you have to choose the best
[00:55:47] question of this program. Perhaps,
[00:55:51] the question where you
[00:55:53] spoke,
[00:55:57] showing that in your field of interests, history,
[00:55:59] religion. Please, raise your hand, who asked this
[00:56:03] question. Oh, we see you. Please introduce yourself, where do you study, in
[00:56:07] what grade? My name is Chermakova Alexandra, I am from Gymnasium
[00:56:10] number 5, I study in the tenth B class. According to the rules
[00:56:14] of our program, the author of the best question receives a special gift,
[00:56:18] come out onto the platform.
[00:56:32] This is not just a book, this is...
[00:57:05] Interestingly, what future do you see
[00:57:09] for your homeland?
[00:57:13] We ourselves build our future and I don't have
[00:57:16] a clear idea. but I think, if we treat each other
[00:57:20] with warmth, with kindness, to ourselves,
[00:57:24] then the future will be good, I would like peace
[00:57:28] to prevail all over the world and
[00:57:30] for medicine to progress
[00:57:32] further,
[00:57:35] I see our country in the future as very developed, where everyone helps
[00:57:39] each other, many churches have been rebuilt, where all peoples
[00:57:43] live in peace, everything will be
[00:57:46] good for us in the
[00:57:48] future.
[00:57:54] It's time to say goodbye to our
[00:57:56] audience. So, clergyman
[00:57:59] of the Belarusian Orthodox Church Fyodor Povny, today a guest of
[00:58:03] the program "100 Questions to an Adult". I'll be waiting for you, Father Fyodor, at the entrance to
[00:58:07] the platform.
[00:58:14] And here, Father Fyodor, I will ask you to stay.
[00:58:19] Father Fyodor, what was the most difficult question for you
[00:58:22] today?
[00:58:25] They were all equally difficult, equally
[00:58:28] interesting and
[00:58:29] truly
[00:58:33] amazing. Do you think you coped with our
[00:58:36] children's audience today? The audience
[00:58:39] will judge, what surprised you about the
[00:58:42] children today? They are
[00:58:44] real.
[00:59:18] After all, I believe that he answered all questions as clearly as possible so that
[00:59:22] we could understand, I believe that he
[00:59:26] was frank,
[00:59:29] because he thought about the answers for a long time,
[00:59:32] spoke a lot and answered many of these questions,
[00:59:36] he still has three
[00:59:39] skips, as they say, God loves
[00:59:43] a trinity,
[00:59:46] Father Fyodor... We have a rule: the last word is always up to
[00:59:50] the hero, summarize the conversation
[00:59:52] that took place. God grant that from
[00:59:55] these young
[00:59:57] people,
[01:00:00] from these girls, guys, boys and girls,
[01:00:04] real citizens of
[01:00:08] our beloved
[01:00:10] Belarus will grow up.
[01:00:13] Fyodor Povny was a guest of the program "100 Questions to Adults" today.
[01:00:17] See you in a week.
[01:00:32] Watch in the next episode. Chairman
[01:00:35] of the Belarusian Ice Hockey Federation, Olympic champion in canoeing,
[01:00:38] Alexander Bogdanovich.
[01:00:40] Welcome.
[01:00:48] have you ever used doping, how much does
[01:00:51] Olympic gold weigh, if our president was sitting in your place right
[01:00:55] now, what would we say to him, do you think
[01:00:59] sport should be out?
