музыка: 'B/!e4eHuE'(BuGs-tiMe 2:58)_2000 от: Nik-O/TechnoLaboratory_31_mArCh We bring to your attention quite in- found an interesting article about profanity in the magazine "Heba", No. 2 for 2003. She will be useful reading for many spektrumists. De- bark conclusions, friends! Hegumen Veniamin (Hobuk) Antiword. A look at profanity from a religious point of view. Rumors about the death of diamat in our Godspa- in this fatherland they turned out to be, as they say, xia, are clearly exaggerated. Scary the smoking room is alive, and how! He is now his will take, as before Bral, not through the Idea- logical department of the Central Committee of the deceased CPSU, and other what, at the level of national consciousness or, more precisely, the lower umbilical elemental Demon consciousness. The connection between the diameter and the mat is not only etymological, but also... deeply interior, biological and even philosophical Skye, if, of course, materialism is considered for philosophy. Materialism is a methodological ical reduction of the higher to the lower, human like about the Monkey. Russian historian and thinker Ivan Timo- fairies as one of the main vices called his compatriots "stinking pronunciation of bad words with tongue and lips (1645). Prot. Sergius Bulgakov wrote: "More visism was born from obscene swearing, yes it is, in essence, and there is a desecration of all kindsma- Terinities: both in the church and in the historical irrigation. We must reckon with the power of words, mystical and even incantatory. And creepy think what a dark cloud hangs over Russia this, here it is, people’s Smerdyakovism" (At the feast of the Gods//From the depths (Collection of articles about the Russian revolution). M.; Pg., 1918). In that same with Collection Vyach. Ivanov in his article “Our Language” conveys the thoughts of V. HumBolt: "Language is at the same time actionable and nal power, conciliar environment, collectively and incom- ceaselessly created and at the same time anticipating and oConditioning every creative action in the cradle of his plan; antinomic combination of freedom and necessity, Divine physical and human; spirit creation people's and God's gift to the people." Sequential Material Experiment lism as an ideology in our country is sufficient definitely convincing: non-vulgar material lism does not Happen, and swearing has become ubiquitous and loud precisely during the communist period, having received “scientific sanction” for this: basically all matter! Now, when the first shock has ceased, the swarm was finally completed, there was even a beginning some, more and more gaining strength movement movement in defense of swearing. Like, we won’t give it to native shrine! Just recently more defenders foul language has arrived, now allegedly with a hundred ron and". Looks like the word "science" is still Has a magical effect, otherwise to non- mu would not appeal a fewtimes the author articles "For the sake of a strong word" (AlBert Wa- Lentnov, "Rossiyskaya Gazeta", December 31 1997). Visible for greater persuasiveness, especially when your own arguments are not enough melts. It turns out that the obscene ones are convincing us, words once carried a completely different meaning. These Were Tabooed in Paganism terms that were conditioned by mystic-re- ligious worldview and associated with the concept of the forbidden. This seems to be true. Indeed, swearing is archaic. But gradually, in re- as a result of the mass atheization of the population, which which was completed by the famous Diamat, with all sorts of secrets were over, the curse began began in full force wherever possible and impossible Zya. The era of no longer limited nothing materialistic (expression by A. Zinovye- va), that is, legalized by the “science” of Bes- shame. I remember the words of F.M. Dostoevs - who, that nothing can captivate a Russian people, as open (scientifically proven) right to dishonor. If this is so, then there should be no science to fit the facts and these facts in such a way justify at once (this is called fact- worship), but still think about these cial side of the matter, about the problem of “should” and “not due,” so to speak. "Science" has made another "great discovery" digging,” the author confidentially tells us, it turns out that swearing is generally useful: so in oursdifficult time she helps a person emotionally discharge. This is, they say, di- alectics of life. Diameter, so to speak, in works well with such “scientific logic”, very Quick and useful for our popular drunken stvu (also, by the way, good for stress) can) add "ordinary fight" for reducing the level of serious crimes. Otherwise Somehow we don’t have enough fights, that’s all Murders, yes murders. In fact, why I wouldn't think about restoring the glorious folk tradition of fist fights for the organi- low-level stress relief for the population. They'll beat you up, you'll break someone's nose, and, look, unpaid wages are not like that It seems like a tragedy. Or why not promote petty theft, e.g. Perhaps there would be fewer large ones? For some reason the author of the article does not come to a simple and completely unscientific question: why is it carried out in this way? "emotional release" should occur to live at the expense of other people who are forced listen to obscenity? The swearer cannot resist It is essential that someone hears him. So it's good to ask, again. from a "scientific point of view", the level of stress- about the state of the listeners, ask them opinion. Well, how are they? Can I add more? Foul language, unfortunately, is not so harmless. There is a direct connection between the pathetic state of our economy,widespread theft, general laxity Banality, rudeness, terrible condition public places and - everywhere or swear words. And not refined, which sometimes we admire some special Bo are gifted artistic natures, and my one is stupid, ugly and out of place at all when not unknown An "article" is added to each word. By- the like, as we know, reaches out to the like, and swinishness in souls gives rise to swinishness external. M. Heidegger called language "home Genesis". As is the language, so is the house. Our the country is a good illustration of this statement. And what is our house like, especially Benno's ladder, we know well. Swearing swearing is, first of all, a symptom of evolution tional underdevelopment. Biologists know that in the animal world there is a pronounced connection between aggression and sexuality tew. Some "specially gifted" individuals use use their genitals to intimidate enemy. Some, equally intelligent tually deprived representatives of the family Homo sapiens do the same thing verbally. Exhibitionists do this in real life. Moreover, from a spiritual point of view, - this is always a spiritual and ethical understatement, the path to vulgar materialism and its eti- the chemical consequence is cynicism. It's good A. Zinoviev also showed it in “Yawning” heights": "Matorealism is the higheststage mothers in the prediamatous period." Teach, teach- those who flirt with obscenities are intelligent ladies and gentlemen, easy to remember! Otherwise until the post-diamond period and your grandchildren will not they will live! But then the coveted capital no talent to be seen! Capitalism, of course, is not shuns materialism, but it is also important observe the hierarchy of values! Can you hear it, gentlemen? yes, what does all this smell like? After all, even those who has already built themselves (after communism) capitalism at a single dacha for you tall fence, are also not insured against non- Unknown Cobblestone (proletariat), inextricably linked with his verbal, the much-loved folk equivalent - swearing. The proletarians' curse is stronger than your intellectual Ghent ("to the place") There will be something else Leo Tolstoy noted. It’s time to draw conclusions, but no - we found Even those who enjoy swearing become aesthetically pleasing. In- It’s interesting that the funds we have proliferated all kinds of “spiritual Security”, and “spiritual spiritual protections" and "spiritual revivals" direct their main efforts to fight against "sects", with all sorts of "not ours", then whether considering swearing Safe for the national identity, or just one from its elements. Moreover, where foul language has become an everyday way of growing marriage, the first one will never be fulfilled article of the Constitution of the Russian Federation, as well as legal state proclaimed inher, nesov- compatible with rudeness. Widespread rudeness never ceases to be rude. “In the beginning was the Word...” (John 1:1). Christianity is not just a religion, but which teaches about God as supernatural a force that must be pleased. Christianity this is a religion of both meaning and words embodied- go, spoken, that is, sounding. Himself God is called the Word, Logos (John 1:1). Insensitive to sound quality words means complete misunderstanding and non- the emergence of Christianity. But now we have almost all Household swearers... - baptism members of the Russian Orthodox Church (Russian Orthodox Church) approx. ed. "FTD"). The Apostle Paul edified Christians: "Bad language is indecent for you" (Eph.5,4). Well, yes, who has read it?! The word is what distinguishes a person from animal. Swearing anti-word, driving people century to his genitals, makes him worse off here, because man, created in the image and likeness of God, originally More given than to an animal. After all, everything is important something new begins in the spiritual-verbal sphere, both good and evil (see patristic literature, code of patristic asceticism "Dobrotolyubie"). Therefore, the swearer must be considered a grave crime against God and society. The Holy Fathers taught to fight the bad emotions not by pouring them out on others people, but by preventing evil from entering her souls. People are responsible forthose poisons that which are produced in them. Generally speaking, from a religious point of view the picture looks completely different than this appears from the perspective of an “eternally living di- amata". Any evil act, as well as evil the word cannot in any way contribute to increasing the recognition of goodness neither in the world nor in the human soul - ka. A swear word induces manifestations evil around you, attracts demonic forces ly. People who have committed crimes often They themselves don’t know how they did it. Not they know precisely because the crime happened committed in a state of evil possession forces (who doesn’t believe in Demons, read: “Be- barking fever" etc.). Where is the guarantee that people will be saved from evil words? (instead of the expected discharge) will not move directly to evil deeds, in full in accordance with the law of inevitable increase What is the required dose (for discharge)? By this logic is the most effective discharge should give murder. Did he say- Is a given word no longer an action? All local Russian foul language makes It makes you think: is it in a Christian society? where we live? Sometimes people swear in our country construction of Orthodox churches, apparently not considering that this somehow contradicts the belief re into God. Have we read the New Testament or just put it on the shelf? Or just fussily crossed themselves, “anointed” themselves with something and lit a candle for someone, deciding thatthis is is there Christianity? Thankfully everything is safe it became. It is, of course, when something is It hurts, then let’s run to the Church to beg recovery, and the rest of the time We live like “normal people”. Example with ve- faceful, "tastefully consumed", also doesn't use it at all. Learn to write first sat without swearing, like Pushkin and other masters they knew how to write the printed word, and then look in their direction. You, gentlemen, are You're supposed to start right away with a swear word. To the people Completely irreligious, for whom no Tabu does not exist, I would like to address: ladies and gentlemen, don't you feel that it’s ugly to constantly look at how Mongrel dogs are under each other's tail, that is, in your pants? Or maybe your love to the swear word there is simply a consequence... ple- The besization of the entire country that took place in our country much more successful than similar electrification, industrialization, intensive fication, etc., etc.? Or maybe you not “ladies and gentlemen” at all, but still the same vankas, steshki, vaskas and broadswords, about which rum wrote by V.G. Belinsky in the famous letter me to H.B.Gogol? (magazine "Heba" No. 2'2003) L1> I remember only the words from one modern song: "I know three words, Three swear words. This is where my vocabulary is exhausted."
