| Σύνοψη: | This article discusses the main points of the current religious situation in Greece. An issue of great importance is the relation between the state and the Greek Orthodox Church, a relation which is not only close and vital for each, but also competitive and edged. Aspects, past and present, of this ambivalent relation are described. The fact that the Orthodox Christian Church remains the prevailing religion in Greece did not prevent the steps taken for the acknowledgement of other religious communities as legal entities, or 'Religious Juridical Persons'. Similarly, the modernization of the state has established the right, regarding their familial and hereditary matters, of Greek Muslim citizens to choose the Civil Law instead of sharia. The international crisis of COVID-19 has already opened a new chapter concerning the reinforced role of the state and its relation to the Christian Orthodox Church and the other religious communities. |
