TODO - Orthodox Christianity, Ecumenicality, Interculturalism, Dignity, Education
TODO - Through our article, we have briefly identified the concept of human dignity, both in the philosophical beginnings of humanity and as an ontological foundation of the person in Christianity. We have attempted to create a framework for dignity in conjunction with the concept of intercultural societies. In a Greek area where Christians and Muslims have lived together for over a century, we presented an educational example. While Philosophy sees the Law of Nature as a means of justification, and the United Nations apply the concept of human dignity, Orthodox Christianity considers each person to be an image of God and "brother and sister" in Jesus Christ.
