Sargis Tkhruni is for church erection
Sargis Tkhruni Youth Student Union of Social Democratic Hnchak Party approves the government's initiative to demolish the summer hall of Moscow Cinema and erect a church instead. In its statement the union finds it irrelevant to speak against a church erection when different sects emerge and numerous moral values vanish in the country day by day.
"It would be better if grand churches were erected in the capital center instead of numerous elite buildings," reads the union's statement.
Nevertheless, the union has two observations. It demands that the restored St. Peter and Paul Church be a classical example of Armenian architecture and not another elite building meeting European standards. The union also demands that the government care for all churches since there are numerous neglected churches in the country.
