By Archbishop Stylianos of Australia . E

tymologically, the word crime means first of all any action for which one mighi be accused. Today, both in penal justice and our code of ethics, the term "cr-ime"

signifies the worst form of injustice, sin of the greatest kind.

The history of hwnankind, in terms of the world, the nation and the individual, is full of crimes, both large and small. Some of these are against the whole of hwnanity. Others are against certain individuals. Some are against the environment. Others are against our own selves. Each of them and all of them together are axiomatically turned against God Himself, whose will they circwnvent and offend.

It is noteworthy that within the field of law there is a specialised subject known as Criminal Law which deals exclusively with crime. This specific subject is called criminology as it involves the various kinds of crime, the conditions which characterise it in each situation, the consequences both on a personal and collective level,~and the whole psychology (although it would be more correct to say pathology) of the one committing the crime. We say "the one committing the crime" and not itthe criminal'; because the participle signifies a temporary condition through which a person passes in order to commit the crime, rather than a permanent habit or a fixed criminal nature which would enable us to talk about a criminal. Even when there is a relapse of the crime, in other words a reoccurrence, we are not to think of this as an insurpassable situation. We could not even characterise it as an invincible destiny. Otherwise the hwnan being would have to be considered the product of an insusceptible evolution, unable to be corrected in ethics. This would make every pedagogigal or corrective attempt on the part of society futile and without any benefit; every invocation of God's enlightenment and assistance from on high would be an irony, if not a mockery.

We have mentioned all of the above by way of a brief introduction to the topic in order to emphasise two basic truths right from the outset. Firstly, that no form of crime shocks us any longer, following the macabre examples that the history of hwnanity has presented worldwide. And it is

true that dumb and bloodthirsty beasts, even when they are ~ most destructive, are innocent angels compared to the atrocities of humankind.

Secondly, that the human person is still the final and utmost ethical criterion within creation in spite of this, because only the human being is the icon of the invisible God. Therefore it is not possible for human beings to be pardoned for any crime in history. That is, for their responsibility to be disregarded or transferred.

The title to this article refers to an unrivalled crime, one which cannot be compared with any other. At first glance 1 this appears to be an unacceptable 'exaggeration, if not something totally made up. For who can count every kind of known or likely crimes of human psychopathology, in order to be in a position to distinguish which is the greatest crime without comparison? Yet, as we shall see below by analysing things carefully, the degree of barbarity of a crime is not immediately made apparent nor is it automatically given. [t is the connection between - or the sum of - a multitude of factors which are related to the phenomenon, which is why we call these factors parameters today. Th""e may vary, and they are not usually visible at first.

Here we shall speak about the crime which is repeatedly denounced by the general media as a tragic symptom of the utmost poverty and misery in China and India. More specifically, due to the fact that in these countries the cursed dowry system is still dominant and pervasive, parents who are unable to meet the expenses of a wedding for a daughter cruelly abandon their new·born child as soon as they know that it is female. There are even cases of the mother being immediately abandoned by the father of the child for no other reason other than that she could not bear to obey the criminal command of the husband which leads to such a death. The statistics are frightening and unbelievable. However they are the official result of accurate and responsible research. Four out of ten new·born babies are killed as soon as they come out of their mother, simply because they were born female!

What is Herod's infanticide when compared to this I horrifying situation? What are the genocides of various peoples by conquerors and invaders such as Nero, Attila, Genghis Khan, Hitler or Stalin? The holocausts which have occurred in history during times of war and peace - no matter how many or where they took place - seem like child's play when compared to the crime which is being committed in I cold blood right before our eyes in China and India. Just how incomparably greater this crime is in comparison to all the persecutions and antisemiticism of the past shall become I apparent when we examine each of the factors which hold together the parameters accompanying them.

1) The absolute innocence of the victims When adults are the victims of a crime, one could at

least find hypothetical reasons for placing some of the responsibility on the victim. An adult can always be accused of having provoked the criminal to some extent, or of infuriating the attacker by resisting the attack. Yet what reason can there be for defenseless newly·born babies who have barely taken their first breath to have to die, simply because they happened to have been born female?

2) The offenders are not foreigners but the parents themselves

When the offender and the victim are not related by the bond of blood and organic dependence the crime is certainly hard and inhuman, but not so unheard of or hideous. But how can one describe the mother who has nourished her child with her own body for 9 whole months and who - at the risk of her life - brings it into the world, but instead of giving her milk, she allows it to die, only because it was born female?

3) The cold-blooded nature of the crime, without direct means of escape.

As is well· known, all courts of the world, both spiritual and secular, always judge more leniently those criminal acts which were committed in "a state of panic'; namely when the offender is taken by surprise or is panic·stricken by an immediate danger or impasse. Yet how can such an argument be applied to parents who kill their child as soon as it is born, in order to avoid paying a dowry at least 18 9T 20 years later?

What justification can they have that they did not plan and execute their crime with complete "composure" and macabre soberness? Who told them that it was impossible for the cursed dowry system to completely disappear from their country in 18 or 20 years, just as so many other barbaric systems which caused injustice and offense for all humankind were erased in recent years? And finally, the most implacable question for these merciless murderers of children: according to which logic and which moral order do married persons alone have the right to live?

4) The irony and reproof of our times The almost silent execution of such a horrible crime

by way of routine (similar to the production of cars or other consumer goods) comes as a stark and bitter contradiction in our times. Our age boasts, and not without reason, of its straightforward and brave formulation, legislatiori and official recognition and protection internationally of "human rights" and the so·called "equality of the sexes'~ While much has yet to be done so that the sacredness and inviolable character of the human person can become a practical reality in all parts of the world - in the way they are described in theory in the texts of the relevant statements and international agreements - it is a fact that never before in the history of humanity has public opinion and sensitivity to social justice for each individual been as developed as it is today.

5) The number of victims Although the crime remains the same whether one

person or more are killed, regardless of race, age or circumstances, it does however become more barbaric according to the number of victims. Since China and India, where these atrocities are committed on a mass scale, are the most populous nations on earth, it is clear that the number of innocent victims is inestimable and that it approaches the. level of worldwide genocide. This is why the crime is not only unrivalled but literally sky-high.

6) The number of witnesses A crime which is committed in isolation or in secret

is not considered to be very catastrophic or abominable in terms of its immediate consequences and effects. It is normally

limited to the few victims or offenders affected, together with any others who may have been involved, either directly or indirectly, as witnesses. Subsequent news of the event, which usually occurs quite late, diminishes most of the acuteness and tragedy because it then acquires the distance and coldness of something that has already finished, a mere part of history. The stoic apathy of ancient people who said that "what is done cannot be undone" is well-known even today. With modem mass media and electronic technology, we become witnesses with our eyes and ears of what has occurred only seconds ago on the other side of the world. Then the crime becomes universal and it affects all of us without exception, both on account of the criminal and the victim.

For all of the above reasons, having no other means to react as quickly and as effectively as possible to this genocide, we sent an urgent letter to the General Secretary of the Australian Council of Churches requesting that an immediate study be made by all Christian leaders in this country in order to determine the best way of dealing with this crime collectively. We hope that the entire matier will be treated with due sensitivity by every responsible person, with our impending mobilisation in this blessed country.which we are privileged to live in, and in which the contribution of genuine social services, by government bodies and private institutions, is a moving reality and not idle talk of irresponsible pre-election promises.

NATIVITY & OF CHRIST WHEN WAS JESUS CHRIST BORN

A. What Year Are We In?

M ost people take for granted that the Nativity of our lord Jesus Christ occured 1993 years ago. This is based on the calendrical measurement of the current years

as Anno Domini (AD.) or METa XPIOTOU (M.X.) 19931 It is the refore assumed that this measures the precise chronological distance between ourselves and the time of the Nativity of Christ. This ca lendrica l measurement however is unfortunately in er~or, and indeed fo r several reasons, as will become clearer below, it is more accurate to assert that minimally some 1997 years have e lapsed since the birth of Christ and maximally some 1999. If t he former be true, then next year should be considered as the year 1998 AD., while if the latter be the case then, stridly speaking, we enter the year 2000 A.D., at the commencement of the present year ! Let us consider the evidence.

B. The Biblical Attestations

The lucan gospel, whose author, an educated Greek Christian steeped in Greco-Roman historiographica l literary traditions and conventions1, in a passage carrying enormous ramifications for our discussion, makes the following interesting attestation:

" In those days, a decree (66ypo) was issued by Caesar Augustus (rrop6 Ko{aapo~ AuyouOTou) that all the world (rroaav Tr]V o/t<ouPEVfJV) should be registered. This was the first registration (6rroypar/Jt1 npWTfJ) of its kind and took place when Quirinius was governor of Syria (QYEPOVEUOVTO{ Ti1~ Iup{a~ KUPfJviou). For this purpose everyone made his way to his own town. And so j oseph went up from judeah from the town of Nazareth in Galilee to register at the City of David called Bethlehem, because he was of the House of David by descent. .. " (luke 2.1 - 5).

Concern ing the precise chronology of the nativity of Jesus, this lucan text makes the following points:

(a) It occured sometime during the reign of the first Roman Emperor, Caesar Augustus. That is Jesus was born during the ea rly impe rial period.

(b) It was during the pe riod when Quirinius was governor of Syria. More specifically, during the time of Caesar Augustus' fi rst universal (empire-wide) registration (6noypo<l>~ npulT~) in its Judean phase of administration.

(c) This registration involved the return of people to their

ancestral towns, hence the journey of the Virgin Mary and the e lder Joseph, to Bethlehem from Nazareth.

(d) This registration, and hence the nativity according to another statement by luke, occured not too much longer than the time of John the Baptist's birth. luke further attests that the Baptist's father, Zechariah the priest, was still alive at the time of his son's birth (1.62 - 79). Zechariah's active service is dated earlier by luke as occuring during "the days of Herod the King (Luke 1.5). In conjundion with the Matthean attestation, it is safe to conclude that Herod I was still alive during the time of the nativity of Christ, and hence also . during that of Jo hn the Baptist' .

C. The Historical Implications

Thi s then is the most revea ling Gospel attestations concerning the chronology of the birth of Jesus. Are they histo rica lly re liable and verifiable? What do they suggest concerning the date of Christ's nativity?

There is no compelling historical reason to doubt the lucan attestation concerning the date of the first Christmas. Indeed the basic personages and events described in the above lucan text, as well as the mention of Herod I (1.5), can be demonstrated to be historically sound. (to be continued)

(Monk) Themistocles

1. The evangelist luke ought to be considered as the first Christian historiographer. His literary style bears cer tain parallels to Hellenistic and Greco-Roman hi stor iographica l writing. For example, in accordance to this li terary genre, St. luke prefaces both his gospel and its sequel, the Ads of the Apostles, wi th a synoptic statement of in tent, scope and dedication, together with a recapitulation at ] the beginning of his second volume (AdS 1. 1 - %). The evangelist indicates a historical rathe r than biographical in terest in composing his text. He sets out to establish a patte rn of events from Zechariah (luke 1.5) to the Paul's preaching in Rome (AdS 28. 30 - , 31). This J lite rary style is in accordance with the historians of his e ra such as Josephus, Uvy, Tacitus, who in turn were influenced by the earlier Herodotus and Thucydides.

2. This is also supported by the Matthean gospel which dates the nativity J of Jesus, while Herod I was still sovereign in Palestine (B.C. 40 -4): "jesus was born at Bethlehem during the reign of Herod'~ (Matthew 2.1)

THE 12th ANNUAL DIALOGUE between

J J THE GREEK ORTHODOX CHURCH AND THE UNITING CHURCH

Fifteen people gathered in the Wesley Mission, Sydney, on 21 October 1993 for the annual day of dialogue between the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of Australia and the Uniting Church in Australia.

Respectively headed by His Eminence Archbishop Stylianos and the Rev. Dr DArcy Wood, the two delegations included other church leaders and officials plus theological students from each church.

There were two major topics for the day. In the morning two theological reflections were presented by the Rev Dr John Chryssavgis and the Rev Dr Gordon Watson on the theme of

126

"Implications of the Trinitarian dogma for the life of the Church". These papers led into a contrcuctive discussion on church structures J and the mission of the church. It was agreed that many of the centuries-old divisions between East and West in theological understanding were being superseded by a new ecumenical consensus. J It is intended that the two papers will be published together in an Australian theological periodical in the next few months.

In the afternoon His Eminence Archbishop Stylianos presented J a report on the Fifth World Conference on Faith and Order held in August in Spain, at which he was the head of the Orthodox

is called the Little Petition. It is called Little Petition in contrast with the Great Series of petitions, which were offered at the beginning of the Divine Liturgy, asking for all things . which are necessary for our physical and spiritual life. The Little Petition, however, is a brief summary of all the previous petitions and begins with the words: "Again and again in peace, let us pray to the Lord':

"Again and again. .. ': we often hear in the holy Services of the Church. Again and again let us tum to prayer. Many times, as often as possible, continuously let us pray to the Lord. Frequently we hear this exhortation for continual prayer . .!t is the exhortation of the Apostle Paul: "Pray without ceasing': It is very easy to forget the duty of prayer, as we are very busy in life from morning to evening. But even at the time of prayer one's mind is easily distracted and needs to return to pr~yer with the exhortation "again and again. .. "

One's whole life is marked by repetition, but every moment of life is somehow unrepeatable for eternity. One eats again and again and again. One breathes continuously in order to live. Again and again one is called to pray in order to be in continual communion with God, to derive power, to be enlightened, to be strengthened. Again and again, therefore, we must pray to the Lord our God for everything. We must pray to the Lord, not only again and again, but ahays .. For we know how weak and sinful we are and how much we are in need of God's help in the difficult circumstanceS of our life. It is for this reason that the last of the previous series of petitions is repeated here: "Help us, save us, have mercy upon us, and protect us, God, by your grace': Without God's grace and His love, we cannot live with God. And without the help and protection of the Theotokos and all the saints, we shall not be able to dedicate our life to Christ our God. It is for this reason that the deacon or the priest reminds us here of the holy Theotokos and all the saihts.

At the end of the Little Petition the people respond positively: "To you, Lord," to You, we dedicate our whole life. As long as we are in this world, there is always the possibility for us to come nearer to God's peace, the protection of the Theotokos and the communion of the saints. It is precisely for this reason that being filled with God's peace again and again we pray, asking for His mercy and His love: "Again and again, in peace let us pray to the Lord ... ': so that we may tt ... commend ourselves and one another and our whole life to Christ our Goei':

Protopresbyter Miltiades Chryssavgis

involved in the dialogue, and one member of the Uniting Church is on the Reformed dialogue team.

The 15 people also shared in the lunchtime city worship service in Wesley Church and inspected the extensive facilities of the Wesley Mission, which is a parish of the Uniting Church.

It was agreed that the growing international consensus in docirinal matters should continue to be high on the Australian dialogue's agenda, with the focus of next year's meeting to be on the approved statements ITom the official Reformed·Orthodox theological dialogue.

ALBANIA - A series of peaceful initiatives were organised over several months by young Orthodox requesting that r Churches which were seized by the communist regime be returned to the Orthodox Church, or that the State alternatively provide land on which new Churches could be built.

Archbishop Anastasios of Albania, who has personally r approached the relevant government authorities, believe that progress in this area is not likely given the current situation, and that international support must accompany the local r efforts that are being made.

It is noteworthy that in the capital of Tirana the Orthodox have only one Church. In the cities of Skodra and Korsi there [ are no Churches. The efforts of Archbishop Anastasios to secure a block of land on which an Ecclesiastical Seminary could be built have not yet come to fruition. He was successful, however, in organising the 1st Orthodox Youth Conference [ which took place at the temporary location of the Orthodox seminary: It was attended by approximately 100 youth members, as well as by Fr. Heikki Hattunen of Finland, president of the worldwide "Syndsmos"fellowship of youth. (

PARIS - On the 23rd June, 1993, Fr. Boris Borninskoy, Professor of Dogmatics at St. Sergius Theological Institute in Paris, was unanimously elected Dean of the Institute by I the academic faculty. He replaces Prof. Andronikoff who resigned for health reasons. Fr. Boris was born in Paris in 1925 and is considered today as being one of best representatives of Russian Orthodox theologians in western I Europe.

PATRA - The co-ordinating body of students concerned with the issues of northern Epirus organised a sum'!ler camp I for 100 children in an effort to enhance the communication and support network between Greece and the Greek community in northern Epirus. The children came from ali i over that region (Argyrocastro, Agious Saranda, Avlona, Korytsa, Moschopoli, Erseka, Leskovikij and even from Tirana.

The children had the opportunity to learn Greek language and history. Special care was taken to provide education in I the Orthodox faith. In fact, 29 children were baptised.

BELGRADE - The official unveiling of a statue of Rigas Feraios, hero of the Greek Revolution of 1821, took place in I the centre of the city of Belgrade during an official ceremony organised by the Greek and Serbian Association of War Veterans of the Macedonian Front.

This event, which honoured Greece internationally, I underlined the strong bonds of friendship between the Serbian and Greek people.
