[BIRDS CHIRPING] [MUSIC PLAYING] [THEME MUSIC] [Music]

00:00:36.680 - 00:00:47.840

Hello, good evening, welcome to Seven Days. Three topics this evening. The first, God and the Soviet Union, an examination of a surprisingly unprogressive speech

00:00:47.840 - 00:00:57.920

by the allegedly progressive Mr. Gorbachev. We'll be discussing this with Michael Bordeaux of Keston College, which for many years has made a special study of religious affairs

00:00:57.920 - 00:01:06.640

in Eastern Europe. And in the light of recent moral difficulties of one sort or another on the stock exchanges of London and New York this week,

00:01:06.640 - 00:01:19.940

and the entry of three and a half million hopefuls into the London stock market in search of a profit from British Gas, we look at how far ethics can come into the business of investment at all. And I'll be talking to Giles Chitty,

00:01:19.940 - 00:01:35.540

who's on the advisory committee of the Ethical Investment Fund. A new report is out from the Church of England on the welfare state, and they'll be discussing it at the next meeting of their synod. Meanwhile this evening, we'll be hearing a bit more from this man.

00:01:35.540 - 00:01:51.760

In order to achieve anything in this area, then jobs have got to be created. Men who reach the age of 48 and are told that they are on the scrap heap. More from him later on. But first of all, God and Mr. Gorbachev.

00:01:51.760 - 00:02:11.720

One of the refreshing, not to say hopeful, things about Mr. Gorbachev's arrival in power in the Soviet Union has been the speed with which he seemed anxious to shake off some of the restrictive dogma and stultifying orthodoxy of traditional Soviet thought. For instance, independent artists who once had their easels and canvases literally bulldozed

00:02:11.720 - 00:02:28.440

by the KGB now find themselves legally free to exhibit and trade in a Moscow park. And indeed, they receive a plug on state television. The Supreme Soviet has just formally permitted a limited degree of private enterprise to be introduced into the economy.

00:02:28.440 - 00:02:45.360

and the capitalist hamburgers of McDonald's receive state praise. The more surprising then, that Mr. Gorbachev has just shown himself as traditionally conservative by Soviet standards on the subject of God as the hardest of hardliners could possibly wish for.

00:02:45.360 - 00:03:02.240

We must declare, he has just said, a stringent and uncompromising struggle against all religious manifestations, and also strengthen our political work and our atheist propaganda. His speech was printed in this local newspaper, Pravda,

00:03:02.240 - 00:03:20.240

beneath the traditional injunction to proletarians of the world to unite. But in fact, it's only a local Pravda which appears in Muslim Uzbekistan. Adding a slight air of mystery to the whole thing is the fact that no mention was made of this speech of Mr. Gorbachev's

00:03:20.240 - 00:03:36.240

either by the Soviet news agency Kass or anywhere else in the Soviet media. Mr. Bordeaux, what goes on? Is this the start of a new offensive against all religion or just against Islam? It could be both.

00:03:36.240 - 00:03:49.240

We are really in the dark about this, but certainly not a new offensive because there has been an offensive going on for many years and there are no real signs of change. It's extremely disappointing that while, as you correctly said,

00:03:49.240 - 00:04:12.420

Goldbachov is showing a liberal face in certain directions, religion as usual is left out as the black sheep of the family and no progressive Soviet citizen can be religious. And this is what Mr. Goldbachov is emphasizing. It was in Central Asia, therefore in a solely Muslim context, and it's been laundered out of his image to be presented in Moscow or

00:04:12.420 - 00:04:32.740

to the world at large. Because there is a political danger from Muslim reactionaries, he would see it as religion. The Kremlin has been worried increasingly about the strength of Islam in recent years. And obviously, both politically and religiously and internationally, Islam presents a threat

00:04:32.740 - 00:04:50.920

to the Soviet regime because there are growing numbers, not only of believers, but growing numbers of people in the Muslim areas. that the Kremlin is worried about its ability to control the nationalism in those areas of Central Asia. So the fact that this speech wasn't in fact shown or to be read anywhere else

00:04:50.920 - 00:05:03.920

might suggest that there's not going to be an offensive against religion in general and against Christianity in particular. One hopes so, but it would be dangerous to forecast. What I see is this, that the Kremlin equivalent of Saatchi and Saatchi

00:05:03.920 - 00:05:21.520

have tried to improve Mr. Gorbachev's image consistently over recent years, over the two years he's been in power, and it would be bad form for Mr. Gorbachev to be seen presenting an anti-religious front. So maybe it's not going to be as bad as we fear.

00:05:21.520 - 00:05:33.080

I noticed you said Mr. Khrushchev, accidentally Mr. Gorbachev. I hope there's no prognosis in that. That was an excellent slip of the tongue, if I may justify myself, because Gorbachev is the most interesting leader.

00:05:33.080 - 00:05:58.000

But one perhaps significant factor which really did lead to the slip of the tongue is this, that while Khrushchev was also liberalizing in the arts, especially in cinema, literature allowed one day in the life of Vandenishevich to be published by Solzhenitsyn, at the same time he really did crack down on religion in an even more significant way than has happened

00:05:58.000 - 00:06:10.360

in the last five or six years in the Soviet Union, and one is worried that the same contradiction may be seen in Gorbachev as well. There is a strange paradox, isn't there, or contradiction, in the whole Soviet attitude to religion,

00:06:10.360 - 00:06:23.920

because on the one hand, religion is, we are told, something to be fought against and to be crushed, and on the other hand, religion is tolerated inasmuch as churches function and religious services are permitted in churches.

00:06:23.920 - 00:06:43.680

Well, it's tolerated in one way and semi-tolerated in another. semi-tolerated in that you correctly say there are open churches, but how many? In one Russian Orthodox diocese in Siberia, which is almost as large as the United States, believe it or not, there are 29 churches open, which means that

00:06:43.680 - 00:07:01.560

there are in fact thousands of villages where there are no churches open at all. So that is a very limited permission for the church to operate, although it does officially operate, as you say. The greater tolerance, indeed the encouragement of religion is in international affairs and the church

00:07:01.560 - 00:07:19.840

leaders are groomed to appear at conferences Islamic leaders as well as Christian leaders sometimes even Jewish leaders to appear at conferences and justify Soviet foreign policy on peace issues and indeed to say that there is no religious persecution under the Soviet system well how can this

00:07:19.840 - 00:07:33.760

toleration and lack of persecution as they say be reconciled with the sort of evidence you produce that there is indeed persecution of Christianity and of Christians in the Soviet Union. Well we have evidence on both sides and not all of

00:07:33.760 - 00:07:47.960

what we say at Keston College is bad news by any means. One piece of good news which is extensively provable, that is that there is a widespread religious revival of all denominations and the whole way around the Soviet Union.

00:07:47.960 - 00:08:02.840

But the bad news, there is evidence, There's just no end to it. There are still hundreds of people in prison for religious activities. There are certain laws in the Soviet Union which restrict religious activities,

00:08:02.840 - 00:08:18.840

and if you break those laws, you may find yourself in prison. And we know of about 400 people at the moment by name, with great detail. Sometimes there are photographs and so on. And they are sometimes serving sentences as long as 10 or even 12 years

00:08:18.840 - 00:08:59.740

for specifically religious activities. But now, of course, the Soviet authorities say that no one is imprisoned for. [Music] He gave up his studies, actually he was expelled from the Institute, because he became a Christian.

00:08:59.740 - 00:09:14.780

And then he formed around him a discussion group, and they discussed Christian themes, they formed a little church cell, as it were, and eventually the whole group was broken up by the KGB, and nearly all of them imprisoned. And this is specifically against the law?

00:09:14.780 - 00:09:23.400

Would it be against the law, for instance, to have a young youth person's choir, for instance? Yes, it is. It's rather strange.

00:09:23.400 - 00:09:35.160

Moscow Baptists there have a choir of their own, which they're very proud of and which foreigners see. Try the same activity somewhere in Siberia or Ukraine, and you may well have a crackdown.

00:09:35.160 - 00:09:43.980

I mentioned 29 churches open in a certain diocese, Yakutsk in Siberia. Try and open the 30th church, and the person who tries to open it may well go to prison.

00:09:43.980 - 00:09:53.980

A Russian Orthodox priest was imprisoned recently for precisely doing that. So it isn't just some anti-state propaganda, which they're often accused of. I mean, it is specifically religious activities.

00:09:53.980 - 00:10:13.480

Oh yes, there are two or three laws on the statute book which restrict religious activity and they contradict the Constitution. The Constitution says separation of church and state. And the law says something different. The law says if you start religious activities without a state license, then you've broken the law.

00:10:13.480 - 00:10:26.700

Very briefly, what can we do about these prisoners? 400 you say, many of them obviously in very rough conditions. The main thing is to be informed. People simply do not realize generally that conditions are as bad,

00:10:26.700 - 00:10:37.460

that there are as many people in prison for their faith. And therefore to know about this, to be informed, perhaps through the work of Keston College is extremely important. - But will the Soviet authorities take any notice?

00:10:37.460 - 00:10:49.220

- Yes, they do, in a remarkable way. I've listened to tape recordings of people who've recently come out of prison, and a man called Valery Barinov, a Christian rock musician, was in prison for two and a half years.

00:10:49.220 - 00:11:02.620

he was in prison so he said on the tape I heard he was shown a whole box full of letters which had reached him from the outside world and his conditions improved in prison directly as a result of the outside concern. Mr. Baudet, thank you very much.

00:11:02.620 - 00:11:35.460

Well now for the increased interest in share ownership. Despite recent insider investment scandals there seems to be no lack of confidence in legal opportunities. I'm fighting an enemy whose face I can never see. I cut him down with my broadsword.

00:11:35.460 - 00:11:50.460
