basic difference in attitudes of Orthodoxy and Catholicism, the Russian attitude

and the Western attitude. Even more, sudba is as if pre-established, it embraces
the whole of human life, and therefore it can be interpreted as
in a general o
utline a fixed way of life. Being understood as a divine providence it contains i
n itself a higher meaning, it becomes the experience of man, and consequently leads
to the justification and acceptance both of all kinds of misfortunes
including
historical calamities as well as acts
compare a proverbial sympathy of the Rus
sian people for criminals and convicts . On the other hand, the attempt to chang
e ones fate is looked upon not too favourably. Certainly not without good reason,
with such understanding of sudba all attempts of opposing it must be associated
with an iconoclastic attitude; and generally this is the case. It certainly is n
ot by accident that all historical revolts in Russia together with the October R
evolution, on the one hand, activated just such attitude and anti-religious acts
, and were carried out under the slogans of holy missions, on the other hand. So
, when it is said in various discourses sudby Rossii or puti Rossii, the talk is
not only of history, but rather, above all, of the destiny the mission of Russia a

times like some continentals? Standardisation of a practice which can cause awka
rdness and embarrassment is surely long overdue. - Philip Watson, London W9 A: S
ocial kissing, as the name suggests, is usually reserved for social life, unless
you work in lovey-dovey metiers such as fashion, magazines, the theatre and so
on, where no professional greeting is complete without osculatory over excitemen
t. It is crass and presumptuous to kiss people you are meeting for the first tim
e: a traditional handshake or small nod of the head is all that is called for. T
he only site for a social kiss is the cheek: attempts at mouths, foreheads or an
y other part of the anatomy display distinctly sexual rather than social intenti
ons. One kiss is usual for the older generation, two quite permissible for young
people, but three is quite excessive for any age. If kissing twice, it is usual
to adopt a left-right sequence. ,
