Abstract:

AbstractTo analyze some possible foci of a commentator's work a model of interpretation is applied: through Text (the commentary) a Sender/the Interpreter (the commentator) interprets a Text (the biblical text) to Recipients (the readers of the commentary) as the Message of Sender (the biblical author) with a certain Purpose to a Recipient (the addressee in the early church) who is in a given Situation (in the early church).

Abstract:

The paper analyses the messages modern architecture communicates to audience and to individual. Architects and theologians regard a church as a community place, and raise questions of aesthetic features of church buildings. At the same time, church space is essential to the visitors’ abilities to remember, to compassionate and to concentrate.The article focuses on the concepts of three modern theologians: Thomas Erne, Bert Daelemans and Sigurd Bergmann. According to Erne, churches are becoming a space of self-transcendence; they are open to various social and aesthetic values within the sphere of the infinite. Daelemans formulates three dimensions of a church building — synaesthetic, kerygmatic and eucharistic — and doing so, establishes the notion of theotopy, the nonverbal theology of architecture. Bergmann considers the sacred place as a critical place. In addition, architects seek not only the theological reflection on such spaces, but also on solutions that reveal their transcendental dimension.Church architecture gives an opportunity to express the inexpressible by figurative means, keeping in mind the thoughts of the visitors. A complex religious space, a church is presented to a person and, therefore, can be grasped in a range of ways. So the church space is constructed. Overall, as a space for dialogue and communication, which is not only a religious, but also an aesthetic and moral construct, a temple remains significant despite secularization trends.

Abstract:

The purpose of this paper is to show how a communication problem was identified between the church and society in New Zealand. The hypothesis was that the way the church presents itself to contemporary society creates a disconnect between the two. As the church is not seen as relevant, those exploring spirituality may therefore never consider the church or Christian spiritualty as being helpful in their exploration. This research looked at whether society (receivers of church communication) and church leaders (as representative of the source of the church’s communication) had the same concept in mind when referring to ‘church’. The theoretical underpinnings of the research started with the basic Shannon-Weaver model of communication.11 The methodology was shaped by the framework of critical studies, and ‘thick description’ from Clifford Geertz was the influencing core qualitative concept behind our method of qualitative research using semi-structured in-depth interviews, focus groups and thematic analysis.22

Abstract:

COVID-19 threatens the survival of many people. The imposition of social isolation, social distancing, and lockdown policies, shuts down face-to-face worship at the church. Despite the stuttering information technology, the Protestant churches gradually broadcast the worship Livestream Youtube and save the video afterward; so that the congregation can watch the e-church further. The adoption of communication technology has become a new strategy for church institutions during the pandemic; by creating channels for congregations. With the theory of mediatization of religion, media used to delivering religious content, and as Protestant virtual communities, environment to gather and participate in real-time Sunday worship on youtube Livestream. E-church is the main target of Indonesian church institutions today, although it cannot be denied that many communication aspects are missing; such as touch, emotion, and expression. By using the Indonesian Christian Church known as GKI Taman Cibunut Bandung as a case study, multi-sources of informants who were interviewed semi-structured were conducted so that the data were obtained comprehensively.

Abstract:

Processes of digitalization continue to have a profound effect on many old, traditional organizations. In institutions such as banks, theaters, and churches, established structures and practices are being challenged by digitization in general and the participatory logic of social media in particular. This article draws on Mark C. Taylor’s concepts of figuring and disfiguring to analyze empirical data gathered from the Church of Sweden Facebook page. The aim is to discuss how social media affects the conditions for religious communication and what the consequences are for a traditional religious organization such as the Church of Sweden.

Abstract:

International inter-religious dialogue is one of the directions of modern foreign policy of any church. Until recently, the latter was determined by narrow church interests. Due to the changes taking place in the religious sphere, in particular its globalization, which itself responds to the challenges of today, the field of external interests of the church extends to single-religious (say, the danger of non-religious proselytism) or even all-religious (for example, shared threat) clean water or planetary warming). Therefore, the list of tasks defined as elements of the church's international activity includes not only spiritual guardianship and protection of their believers abroad, missionary work among unbelievers and non-believers, pastoral visits to the diaspora, but also friendly communication with the brotherly churches, contacts with theologians spiritual leaders of other religions, consultations with prominent statesmen and public figures, scholars, politicians, representation in international interreligious associations, etc.

Abstract:

The paper aims at analysing the problematic issue of religious communication via the television media. As the positions of media theorists and the church to the use of media in religious communication differ, the paper seeks to compare those two perceptual perspectives. Thus the first part of the paper discusses the nature, impact and communicational role of media, the second analyses television as media from a philosophical perspective and the third part focuses on the analysis of the church documents concerning the practices of existing “tele-evangelization”. The paper examines the insights of the key media theorists and philosophers – Marshall McLuhan, Vilém Flusser, Jean Baudrillard, Neil Postman. McLuhan said that the qualitative changes in human history are associated with the emergence of new communication tools, so it is important to gain the proper knowledge of them for every human being. Since we are inevitably linked to the digital environment in which we live, an essential condition to enable a conscious existence in this environment is reached thorough knowledge of the defective media nature. Church openness to media is a result of different approach to media reality rather than poor absorption of the media nature.

Abstract:

The article is devoted to relations between Church and the Ukrainian State and analysis of their current state and prospects of development. The authors analyze some state–church approaches to the relationship between State and Church based on Ukrainian legislation and social concepts of churches. The main task of a modern state is to guarantee freedom of conscience to citizens and provide conditions for free functioning of religious organizations. Church also assumes certain responsibilities to the state and society. The article provides an overview of the attitude of the Catholic, Greek Catholic and Orthodox Churches to power. Referring to the practice of state-church relations and church-state relations in Ukraine, the authors deduce that the subjects of these relations do not yet demonstrate the appropriate level of culture of this relationship, and do not follow the rules of partnership between Church and State. The authors admit a possibility to constructively criticize each other’s positions and make mutual demands, contextualizing their interests and needs while forming this culture. At the same time, State should get rid of the remnants of Soviet totalitarian control over the activities of Church, and Church should renounce patronage and servility. For both State and Church, in the sphere of mutual relations, taking into consideration world models of civilized relations between them and referring to their own history of these relations and existing experience of communication with each other, there should be established a high culture of dialogue between State and Church, between secular and spiritual authorities.

Abstract:

This article presents an exploratory study of some of the ways in which religious communities communicate as organizations in digital spaces. Based on previous research, the article examines the extent to which processes of mediatization are visible in the digital spaces utilized by religious communities in Denmark today.The study is based on data from websites and Facebook groups from ten Christian churches: five ELCD (Evangelical Lutheran Church in Denmark) parishes and five free churches. Data was collected using methods particularly designed for collecting digital data, with due consideration of the ethical implications of researching religious identity online. The data collection represents a follow-up study to the research project Religion in Aarhus 2013. Based on our findings, we suggest that mediatization processes progress more slowly in institutional religious communication because of the way in which they are organized. Furthermore, we demonstrate that there are some patterns in the way Christian communities express themselves online, and that these patterns to some extent depend on whether an ELCD parish or a free church is involved.

Abstract:

The research featured the issue of intercultural communication in the aspect of cultural and anthropological approach. The article introduces the case of the Russian Orthodox Church as it incorporated one of the remote outskirts of the Empire the Yakut region in Russia. The research was an attempt to understand the problems of intercultural communication during the intercivilizational interaction between the Orthodox (Christian) civilization and the local Arctic civilization of the peoples of North-East Asia. The author explained the permanent process of Christianization in Yakutia, as well as described the role of missionary work as a method of developing new territories and the specifics of parish activity. The relations with the nonOrthodox population improved when the state law replaced the traditional Patriarchal foundations, and representatives of non-Slavic elites entered the structure. The Orthodox Church conducted various social and educational activities, since it took secular social and educational state institutions a long time to reach this remote region. In the XVII–XIX centuries, the activity of the Russian Orthodox Church in Yakutia contributed to the intercultural communications with this marginal territory and ensured the involvement of the Yakut ethnic group in the Russian state space.

Abstract:

This theoretical reflection addresses issues arising in the history of world Christianity, in particular regarding mission churches in Africa since the nineteenth century. The article first evaluates the development of oral, manuscript and print communication cultures in western culture, and their influence since the first century in the Church. Modernity could only develop in a print culture, creating the cultural environment for the Reformation. Sola Scriptura theology, as in Calvin and Luther, considered the written Word of God essential for the Church’s life. The role of literacy throughout Church history is reviewed, in particular in the modern mission movement in Africa and the growing African church, to show the importance of literacy in developing a strong church. In conclusion, spiritual growth of churches in the Reformation tradition requires recognition of the primacy of print culture over orality, and the importance of a culture of reading and study.

Abstract:

This article explores changing discursive practices on the implications of the continuous development of the Internet and information and communications technology (ICTs) within the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Finland. The article argues that the development of the Internet and new media technologies has been accompanied by the proliferation of a set of influential and widespread discursive formations on the character of institutional communication and practice in a digital era. These developments have motivated an increasing technologization of discourse within the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Finland that has chiefly involved a conscious redesign of its discursive practices vis-à-vis the Internet and ICTs in accordance with new criteria of communication effectivity and a notable new emphasis on training in these new practices.

Abstract:

LGBT is a sexuality issue that is still being debated in Indonesian society, especially in the religious scope. The church,as a place of worship which is a community with the same belief to worship, has teachings with an interpretation that considers LGBT a sin. Gereja Komunitas Anugerahand the Metropolitan Community Church of Toronto are churches that openly accept LGBT congregations. The two churches are trying to support LGBT congregations by holding activities that discuss the rights of LGBT congregations. This research wants to know how the acceptance of LGBT congregations by churches as a place of worship in Indonesia. Researchers review from the communication side, communication functions and goals. The method used in this research is a phenomenological method with a qualitative descriptive approach. The research data were obtained from in-depth interviews, direct observation, document study and literature study. The conclusion of this research is that the church as a place of worship accepts LGBT because it has a meaning of the holy book verse. Acceptance is carried out by communicating with LGBT people, supporting, instilling religious values, and inviting them to be involved in activities at places of worship.LGBT merupakan isu seksualitasyang masih menjadi perdebatan di masyarakat Indonesia, khususnyapada lingkup keagamaan.

Abstract:

Information and communication technologies have been accepted as one of the most significant forces of modernization. Studies have looked at the role information and communication technologies play in religion and their application in religious environments. However, the majority of these studies focused on the developed world. Few empirical studies focused on Nigeria. This study investigated the adoption and use of information and communication technologies by Pentecostal churches in Ibadan, Nigeria. The results revealed that the majority of Pentecostal churches in Ibadan have adopted and are using information and communication technologies, the main reason being to propagate the gospel. This research has been able to contribute to knowledge by bringing out their role and impact on church growth, spiritual upliftment of members and its concomitant effect on society as a whole.

Abstract:

The virtual world of the Internet is acknowledged as a potentially innovative way of doing research on faith. Computer mediated religious communication is a relevant field of research at the beginning of the 21st century and a significant source of data for researching religious identity, communities and the ritual use of the Internet. Using the examples of two monasteries of the Serbian Orthodox Church, we will attempt to examine new ways in which the church mediates in the communication of the faithful with god, as well as examine new types of spiritual interactions which occur through Facebook. The first part of the paper describes the look and content of different types of communication of orthodox monasteries and churches which emerges on the Internet. The second parts thematically groups and analyzes the visual materials posted by Facebook users, the contents of messages and the descriptions of their religious and spiritual experience, their behavior, and whether and to what extent members of a FB (Facebook) group “like”, share and comment on certain content.

Abstract:

The desire to overcome the split of Christianity in 1054, which laid the foundations for the formation of two religious systems - proclamation and Catholicism, initiated the signing of the Lyons (1274), the Ferraro-Florentine and Berestea Unions, which created a special model of the Church. Subsequently, such Churches felt the pressure of Romanization, which further strengthened the Orthodox persuasion of the desire of the Apostolic See to subordinate the Orthodox Church. The mutual alienation between the Catholics and the Orthodox was deepened in the eighteenth century, when the Congregation for the Spread of Faith by the special decree in 1729 banned "communication in sacris" (joint worship and participation in the Holy Sacraments). The doubts of the Catholics in the grace of the Orthodox churches had a reciprocal reaction from the patriarchs of Constantinople, Alexandria and Jerusalem, who in 1755 issued a joint statement calling them heretics all who were outside the Orthodox Church.

Abstract:

The development of an independent conciliar Ukrainian state and the related processes of restoring historical memory, awakening of national consciousness raised the issue of the functioning of the Ukrainian language in the church, drew public attention to the development of the religious style of the Ukrainian literary language. Like any other public structure, church communicates at the internal religious (confessional) level and at the external – national level. This leads to the formation and establishment of official-business language communication, operation of documents that have characteristic linguistic-structural (lexical, syntactic, textual) features, different from the usual office work. The documentation of the activities of religious organizations reflects the following main stages: – Establishment of religious organizations: statement, charter of the religious community, minutes of the general meeting on the adoption of the statute (regulations) and elections of governing (executive) bodies, a document confirming the organizational and canonical subordination of the religious community, etc. – Staffing: decree. – Participation in the Sacraments: Certificate of Holy Matrimony, Certificate of Baptism and Holy Chrismation, Certificate of Ordination. – Honouring with liturgical and church awards and distinctions. Priests are rewarded with liturgical awards according to the hierarchy of promotion. After that, together with the award, the clergy receive an official document – a Certificate. In addition, there are a number of church awards. Among them are diplomas, orders, medals, which are conferred to lay people who work for the good and prosperity of the Orthodox Church. – Formal business communication for different needs. According to the classification of S. Gongalo, the documents are divided into: – by name: orders, instructions,prescriptions, reports, statements, notes, letters, invitations, etc. – by place of drafting: internal and external. – by origin: official and official personal – by purpose: originals and copies – Confirmation of facts: Reference. Having identified the genres, structure and functioning of official business communication in religious discourse and analyzed them, we can conclude that these documents do not have a high level of standardization, clear structure and rules of design in accordance with legal requirements. They need a clear classification of documents of religious style, the development of requirements for their design, in general – the standardization and unification of official business texts of religious discourse.

Abstract:

The demons of racism, bigotry, and prejudice found in society at large are also found in the Christian Church. Despite the very nature of Christianity that calls on Christians to be a counter voice in the world against evil, many have capitulated to various strains of racism. Some Christian denominations have begun to explore racism in the Church and have developed responses to addressing the issues in both the Church and the world. This article examines the historical context of race and religion in the Christian Church, and addresses the current efforts of some Christian denominations to become proactive in the struggle against racism. Jesus, in His Word, calls believers to pursue peace and oneness. The paper holds that racial harmony and racial unity are possible, but there are many false, old and d beliefs that will have to be crushed under the hammer of God's Word in order to get to a place of real peace.

Abstract:

ABSTRACTChristian churches are central to modern social and political organization in the Pacific islands, yet little research has been conducted on their role in intrasocietal diversity in language attitudes and use. We examine church affiliation and its impact on language use, identity, and change among Kwara'ae speakers in the Solomon Islands, where intense competition for converts and the association of particular churches with modernization and development is having a significant impact on language choice and change. We show that members of different sects signal their separate identities not only through linguistic code but also through discourse patterns and nonverbal aspects of communication. The characteristics we identify are illustrated in transcripts from four speakers, and the social outcomes of these characteristics is discussed. (Ethnography of speaking, discourse analysis, nonverbal communication, language change, language attitudes, Melanesia, Solomon Islands)

Abstract:

In this article the authors offer an analysis of Jean-Paul Sartre’s 1946 play Huis Clos (No Exit) and Reginald Rose’s 1954 play Twelve Angry Men, with particular attention paid to exploring the insights from each theatrical text about communication. The process of communication may be ambivalent or Janus-faced, and one of the objectives of this analysis is to consider communication in terms of its duality and incisive power. In doing so, the aim is to explore its antithetical tensions by amplifying the mythological, deliberative and philosophical dimensions of communication praxis. In particular, the archetype of the knife provides a useful metaphor for understanding the potentials and pitfalls of communication in human interaction.

Abstract:

Christianity exists within the different religious traditions and Christians are aware of this reality as part of their existence. Especially in Asia, this situation has become a basic context to Christianity and the local churches that requires continuous reflections. In Asian reality, religious plurality is not merely a particular situation, but an important stage in the life of the Christianity, which leads to further reflections and even questioning of its existence among the other religions. The Catholic Church in Bogor (the Diocese of Bogor), Indonesia, is one of the example how the church in Asia is trying to survive and to find its roots within the local context. Thir article is inspired by the Diocese’s vision, the documents of Vatican II, and other documents of the Catholic Church, in exploring how the “spirit of encounter” can become a model for the local church to continue to exist within the religious plurality. This spirit invites the local believers to have a committment in giving their attention to the their context and to their social dimension. Through the encounters, the local church attempts to reduce the gaps of communication and to preserve good relationship with people of different religious traditions. Here the church enters the interfaith experience or the experience of togetherness, and the spirit of encounter might help spread the image of the church as a church of relation.

Abstract:

The purpose of the study is the analysis of scientific communication of modern theological Rus-sian educational institutions. An understanding of the content, goals and prospects of the corporate culture of modern ecclesiastical education is facilitated by the analysis of scientific communication. The most common form of scientific communication are conferences. Among them, one can single out large-scale forums uniting representatives of clerical and secular educational institutions, public organ-izations, libraries, museums: Cyril and Methodius readings, Christmas readings, Оrthodox book day. Readings are a unique platform for discussing scientific research in the field of humanitarian knowledge, as well as discussing issues of intercultural and interfaith dialogue. More specialized con-ferences devoted to the discussion of exclusively scientific issues are held by theological educational institutions, such as: Orthodox St. Tikhon Humanitarian University (Moscow), Russian Christian Hu-manitarian Academy (St. Petersburg), Perervinsky Theological Seminary (Moscow), Yekaterinburg Theological Seminary. One of the forms of work of theological educational institutions is the holding of methodological seminars for teachers: for example, “Problems of the methodology of theological and patristic studies” (Moscow Theological Academy), “Preparation and creation of an educational-methodical complex” (St. Petersburg Theological Academy). Another form of realization of scientific communications is the work of scientific circles and communities, for example, such as the Sociology of Religion laboratory at the St. Tikhon Orthodox Humanitarian University, the “Russian Thought” seminar at the Russian Christian Humanitarian Academy. An important form of scientific communication is the activity of scientific periodicals. Most theological educational institutions actively lead groups on social net-works. In communities, you can find invitations to open and interesting lectures, master classes, meet-ings of discussion clubs on acute social issues, which are held on their own sites. The forms of scientific communications of theological educational institutions are effective, but also not free from problems. In the modern church higher education, first of all, the pedagogical poten-tial develops, and the scientific one remains in second place. This state of affairs is determined by the general church situation, in which church research centers as such are absent, and theological schools have the responsibility, first of all, to educate and educate future priests. Promising for the develop-ment of scientific communications is the interaction of secular and church pedagogy in the methodo-logical field; joint research projects and publications with representatives of secular science.

Abstract:

The aim of the article is to clarify the essence of the main forms of inter-confessional confrontation in Ukraine among Christian churches and to find ways to counteract them in order to religiously and nationally consolidate Ukrainian society. Conflictogenic factors influencing the interfaith confrontation in modern Ukraine have been identified. There are two main groups of interfaith conflicts, each of which has special forms of interfaith confrontation and different phases of their severity: conflicts between Orthodoxy and other denominations; conflicts in the Orthodox environment. It is substantiated that with the restoration of the Ukrainian Churches during the rise of Ukrainian independence in the 90s of the twentieth century. interfaith relations have become more acute, which is associated with both the split of Ukrainian Orthodoxy and the actualization of the long-standing conflict between Orthodoxy and the revived Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church. The reasons for the confrontation in the Orthodox environment were conflicts of corporate interests between individual Orthodox church institutions, different views of each of them on the principles of the unification process and a radically opposite understanding of canonicity. The formation of the Orthodox Church of Ukraine, although integrating the interests of the two Orthodox denominations (UOC KP and UAOC), at the same time did not eliminate inter-confessional contradictions with the UOC within the Moscow Patriarchate. It is concluded that the realities of Ukrainian church life encourage an active search for ways to counteract interfaith confrontation, a key aspect of which should be the establishment of a new format of socio-religious communication in the coordinates "Church-Church", "Church-State", "Church-Society". In a practical sense, effective means of its implementation can be: interfaith dialogue, building the Orthodox Church of Ukraine, countering Russian ideological aggression, strengthening the role of the media in overcoming religious threats.

Abstract:

Practical theology, according to Stone (2002) posits that churches should care and sacrifice for the community. Consequently, Christianity has been handling epidemics for more than 2000 years. This paper seeks to assess the role that is being played by the leadership in Apostolic Faith Mission in Zimbabwe (AFMZ) in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The term leadership in this paper refers to those in charge of the congregants and this includes church pastors, reverends, bishops and elders. Church leaders are people who play influential roles within their faith communities and the broader local community. They benefit from trust and exercise moral authority over members of their local faith community, and shape public opinion in the broader community and even at the national or international level. The paper argues that the church and its leadership play an important role in providing moral guidance to tackle COVID-19 and also to dispel fear that stalks communities alongside the disease. In order to evaluate the role that AFMZ leadership is playing in the fight against COVID-19, the paper employs a qualitative research approach in its exploration and analysis of data gathered through an online survey method. The paper found out that the church is playing a vital role in communities by communicating messages of hope in the midst of severe fears of COVID-19. It also found out that the church leadership is playing a vital role in changing people’s attitudes toward COVID-19 by providing in depth discussions of safety measures in times of the pandemic. Lastly, the paper found out that the church leadership is not doing enough on the practical matters like providing food to the most vulnerable groups in their respective communities and for quarantined patients, maintaining clear communication with families and ensuring that basic primary care is not undermined due to limited finances. The paper therefore recommends that more finance should be availed to church leadership especially from the main church coffers to enable them to meet the above-mentioned demands.

Abstract:

This grounded theory study examines the motives for relationships between local churches and missionaries: What motivates churches to enter into a relationship with a missionary, to continue this relationship, and to end it? Similarly, what motivates missionaries to begin, continue, or end relationships with a local church? We used purposive stratified sampling to select 17 missionaries and church mission leaders to interview for this study. We performed semi-structured interviews with both groups to discover their understanding of why they form, maintain, and dissolve relationships with each other. Multiple motives influenced all participants. These motives can be broadly categorized as either relationship-focused motives or task-focused motives. Furthermore, the task-focused motives can either be centered on specific goals shared by churches and missionaries (e.g., starting a reproducing church among a specific people group) or on specific processes (e.g., evangelizing or feeding the poor). Although all participants had multiple motives, each participant emphasized some motives over others. The motives present in each party influence many aspects of their relationship, including their communication, financial involvement, and the purpose of the church’s short-term mission trips to the missionary’s setting. In contrast to social exchange theory which provides a framework to understand conditions under which a relationship will be maintained or ended, the multiple motive theory of church and missionary relationships goes further; it describes specific motives that exist which influence whether a relationship begins, continues, or ends.

Abstract:

Faced with difficulties of communication between separated churches, the Roman Catholic Church has attempted to provide a framework for sacramental sharing between Christians genuinely prevented from receiving the sacraments in their respective churches and ecclesial communities. This paper first considers the Roman Catholic canonical requirements for sacramental sharing. It then addresses the approach taken in the ecclesiastical jurisdictions in Great Britain and Ireland, and compares it with that of Canada. Finally, suggestions for reform are considered.

Abstract:

AbstractMedia Ethics first became established as a subsidiary subject in the arts faculties of German universities as a by-product of the Age of Digitalisation and the individualisation of active media use. Since their experience with Nazi propaganda, the Churches in Germany have adopted a watchdog role in society, as a »social guardian«. This role includes media communication, whereby media are understood as instruments of freedom. Thus, the Churches in Germany have been a driving force in encouraging ethical reflection of media from a Christian perspective. Christian, in particular Reformatory Church media history has generated the following key terms in conjunction with the reflection of media communication: attentiveness, diversity, empowerment, participation, service to the democratic public, representation, and freedom.

Abstract:

The formation of students of higher theological seminaries embraces different problems. It is no possible to skip the mass-media problem in the seminarformation. The present research undertakes the problem of the seminar-formation in relation to using media in the mission of the Church, which are propositions of law and church-teaching in this field. Detailed norms of the education of seminarists bear upon three levels: first embraces the formation of seminarists as receivers, the next stage possesses the pastoral dimension, and the third (specialistic) is directed to those who will committing their future working on the field of media or will be lecturers in this sphere. The study of the documents of the church, instructions and propositions of law, confirms the urgent need of formation of the seminarists of theological seminaries, in the area of instruments of social communication. In the preparation of seminarists, one cannot only bring the separate lecture on the subject massmedia. Necessary is the general philosophical reference, and the theological formation to the present problems of social communication. In the present evangelization one ought to use mass-media. One ought today to ask after this, as to using instruments of social communication, which forms of the communication and which technologies are most useful in the concrete realization of the mission of the Church. One future priest, the conscious and critical receiver, should be a partner in the dialogue in the subject of present forms of the communication.
