Churches and the European Union: the benefits of self restraint
Abstract des Autors: In my opinion, also for churches in Europe, self-restraint should and will be an important issue. It can help to strengthen their position in the European Union of the future.

| Σύνοψη: | Abstract des Autors: In my opinion, also for churches in Europe, self-restraint should and will be an important issue. It can help to strengthen their position in the European Union of the future. And by doing so, churches can offer more to their faithful and to other people than they already do now.

The angle should be more the common good - a shaky notion of course - than the defence of a privileged position enjoyed by churches. The latter makes no sense in the long run. When a position is perceived by most people in society as privileged, it has to be abandoned sooner or later, either by evolution or by revolution. And that is a good thing |
