“Orientation” about the church and the EU

On June 2nd at 12.30 p.m. on ORF 2

Vienna (OTS) Sandra Szabo presents “Orientation” on Sunday, June 2, 2024, at 12:30 p.m. on ORF 2 with the following topics:

“Soul of Europe”: Church and the EU

The “Chapel for Europe”, a small chapel, is located in the middle of the EU government district in Brussels. It is part of a former women’s monastery, which now houses a visitor center, the EU Commission library and a kindergarten. The small church should be open to everyone, the EU chapel stands for ecumenical cooperation and interreligious dialogue. The Roman Catholic Church is represented in EU operations in Brussels by the Commission of Bishops’ Conferences of the European Community (COMECE) and takes an active part in political dialogue. COMECE emphasizes the importance of human dignity and Catholic social teaching. Sandra Szabo visited Brussels as part of a press trip.

Migration pressure: local inspection at the EU external border

A few weeks ago, the EU agreed on a new asylum and migration agreement that is intended to control migration and curb smuggling crimes. Some of these are detention centers at the EU’s external borders, such as the controversial Lipa camp in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Shoura Hashemi, Managing Director of Amnesty International Austria, human rights activist Daniel Landau and international law expert Ralph Janik were there for a local inspection. They warn that human rights should not be ignored despite the migration pressure. Marcus Marschalek accompanied her.

Difficult fate: homosexuality in Tanzania

These weeks the gay community is celebrating Vienna Pride – with the rainbow parade on June 8th as the highlight. Events like this are not possible in Tanzania. Homosexuality is forbidden by law; 95 percent of the population rejects it. Cardinal Polycarp Pengo, the senior archbishop of Dar es Salaam, has repeatedly described homosexuality as one of the “gravest sins on earth.” Nevertheless, there are organizations that strive to accept the LGBTQ community and help those affected. “LGBT Voice Tanzania” is one of them. Whatever they do, their activists have one foot in court. Blessing homosexual partnerships, as a Vatican document discussed around the world suggests, is difficult to imagine in Tanzania. However, there are also priests who advocate for homosexuals. Christian Rathner with a local inspection.

Close relationship: Franz Kafka and Judaism

He is one of the most important writers of the 20th century, his work part of the canon of world literature: Franz Kafka. His relationship to Judaism preoccupied him throughout his life. But it was primarily his friend and supporter Max Brod who noticed and accentuated the Jewishness of Kafka’s work. As an adult, Kafka learned Hebrew and, although he was not a Zionist, he considered emigrating to Palestine throughout his life. But his poor health made traveling impossible. 100 years ago, on June 3, 1924, Franz Kafka died in the sanatorium in Kierling, near Vienna.
