Christmas is still celebrated on January 7 in Georgia, despite numerous discussions about whether this date should be moved to December 25. The Patriarch's recent congratulatory message, which turned out to be fake, renewed questions about who governs the Patriarchate, and the Christmas epistle distributed in the name of Ilia II raised the question of who is meant by the "fallen man" who "suffers from egocentrism and the fear of death." ⛪ The struggle between the state and the church for influence over public opinion is nothing new. The ambiguity regarding the distribution of influence within the Patriarchate itself is new, and the question of who runs one of the most influential institutions in the country is new. Together with Levan Sutidze, editor of "Tabula", and Leon Gelovani, priest-monk of the Ukrainian Autocephalous Church, we will try to clarify the new situation.
