Procession Under Slogan “Down With Sects!” Held In Yerevan

PROCESSION UNDER SLOGAN “DOWN WITH SECTS!” HELD IN YEREVAN

YEREVAN, MAY 16. ARMINFO. A procession under the slogan “Down with
Sects!” and “Beware of ‘Jehovah’s Witnesses’!” was held by the United
Nation party Sunday.

“We came here to say ‘no’ to the US puppet sects destroying our
national values and leading our nation to spiritual and consequently
physical slavery,” says the leader of the party Gor Tamazyan. In
fighting sects the party quite successfully applies their own tactics
– propagating against them and exposing their unhuman essence.
Nevertheless the number of sects and their supporters has grown
in the last year. Tamazyan does not consider a sect the Armenian
pagans – but not because there are advocates of this religion among
Armenia’s top officials but because paganism is national and is part
of Armenia’s past.

Tamazyan is optimistic as Speaker of Armenian Parliament Artur
Bagdassaryan has promised him to legislatively protect Armenian
Apostolic Church.

To remind, earlier Armenia’s Prime Minister Andranik Margaryan said
that the Government was going to toughen the rather liberal law on
religious. “We have laid it too thick with democracy and now have to
remedy the situation,” Margaryan said. There are almost 30 sects in
Armenia the biggest being Jehovah’s Witnesses – 18,000-30,000 people.
