Can We Get Bulgarians to Serve as Governors of the States in the South?

The Bulgarian Prime Minister Boyko Borisov is showing much greater respect for the Church than most of the South’s supposed ‘Christian’ governors despite the coronavirus illness going around:

After meeting with His Holiness Patriarch Neofit of Bulgaria and the Bulgarian Holy Synod yesterday, April 9, Prime Minister Boyko Borisov reiterated that he cannot and will not close the churches for Palm Sunday, Holy Week, and Pascha.

“You want us to close the gates and expel the priests. But there are many people for whom this feast is everything, and for them it is vitally important to be in church. Therefore, I can’t do it,” Boykov said after meeting with the hierarchs, reports mediapool.bg.

“The Church saved us from Ottoman slavery. We can do everything with discipline. It depends on us, but I can’t come with the police and close the churches,” he emphasized.

“Our Orthodox religion, if you read it, it is extremely wise, there is a recipe for everything, there is an interpretation; you can learn everything. We have the Bible, and it says, ‘Without the Lord you can do nothing.’ So how I can close the churches, so you can’t pray to Him without Whom you can do nothing?” the Prime Minister added
