The Serbian Orthodox Church has accused the protesting students of "living in parallel universes" where they "make a mockery of the values ​​of Saint Sava".

Study at UNIRSM in Serbia they live in parallel universes and it is up to them to decide if they want to live in the world he told them about Patriarch of Porphyry, or in the one in which all Saint Sava values ​​and all Serbian identity features are mocked, assessed the Serbian Orthodox Church in a statement signed by Patriarch Dušan Stokanović.

In the announcement of the SPC, it is written that "while some students proudly carry icons and national flags, kiss them while crossing themselves, others at as many as three faculties - Organizational Sciences, Political Sciences and Law, silently and without protest watch as the same flag is desecrated and desecrated on stage. and those who are baptized with the cross are insulted with the most shameless insults".

"An even more obvious example of Serbian students living in parallel, if not multi-universes, happened last night, on the eve of the feast of St. Sava," says the announcement of the Serbian Orthodox Church.

It goes on to say: "While the students of the University in Belgrade filled the Church of Saint Sava in prayerful silence at the pre-holiday vigil, then listened to the sermon of Patriarch Porphyry, and then enjoyed themselves in the Academy of Saint Sava, in Serbian Athens, in Serbian Motherland, the temple of Serbian science, culture and art , a group claiming to be students, violently disrupted the Svetosava Academy there in order to impose their anti-Svetosava, anti-Christian and anti-Serb narrative and concept of life".

It is up to the students to decide "in which universe they want to live", said SPC, so "as they decide, so will it be".
