Religion is a range of social-cultural systems, including designated behaviors and practices, morals, beliefs, worldviews, texts, sanctified places, prophecies, ethics, or organizations, that generally relate humanity to supernatural, transcendental, and spiritual elements—although there is no scholarly consensus over what precisely constitutes a religion. It is an essentially contested concept. Different religions may or may not contain various elements ranging from the divine, sacredness, faith,Tillich, P. (1957) ''Dynamics of faith''. Harper Perennial; (p. 1). and a supernatural being or beings.

Pavle Of Smederevo
Serbian Patriarch Pavle I ( sr-cyr, Српски патријарх Павле I; 1527–1541) was the Archbishop of Peć and self-proclaimed Serbian Patriarch from around 1530 to 1541. He tried to end the long period of vacancy of the Serbian Patriarchal Throne, with limited and temporary success. Biography As the Metropolitan of Smederevo, he managed with the help of notable Serbs and some Ottoman officials to take control over the Archiepiscopal see of Peć, and worked toward its renewed autocephaly, recreating the Serbian Patriarchate of Peć that had been vacant since 1463 and formally abolished by the Ottomans, who transferred all Serbian eparchies to the jurisdiction of the Archbishopric of Ohrid. Most of the higher clergy, however, supported the Archbishop Prohor of Ohrid, and on the Church assembly on 13 March 1532 anathematized Pavle and his followers. After some time Pavle made peace with Prohor, and recognized his supreme jurisdiction, but later began a more activ ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
