Budapest, HUNGARY \u2014 Prime Minister Viktor Orb\u00e1n told a packed hall in the capital Hungary is proud of its Christian heritage and will do all in its power to defend its Christian identity.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cWe are proud that our king Saint Stephen built the Hungarian State on solid ground and made our country a part of Christian Europe one thousand years ago,\u201d Mr. Orb\u00e1n said, citing Hungary\u2019s constitution. \u201cWe recognise the role of Christianity in preserving nationhood.\u201d<\/p>\n

The prime minister said \u201cSaint Stephen, our first Christian king, was an enlightened monarch, a visionary who wrote a guide<\/a> for his son Emeric called \u2018Admonitions\u2019 that we Hungarians read as a personal message to each of us, both as a nation and as individuals, and it has been a source of our strength and flourishing.\u201d<\/p>\n

Along with urging him to preserve the Christian faith, the Admonitions also contained precious counsel for good citizenship and good government, Mr. Orb\u00e1n noted.<\/p>\n

\u201cBe merciful to all who are suffering violence, keeping always in your heart the example of the Lord who said: I desire mercy and not sacrifice,\u201d Mr. Orb\u00e1n recited. \u201cBe patient with everyone, not only with the powerful, but also with the weak.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cFinally, be strong lest prosperity lift you up too much or adversity cast you down. Be humble in this life, that God may raise you up in the next,\u201d he quoted.<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

In his speech, broken up periodically by enthusiastic applause, the leaderr echoed words<\/a> written by Pope John Paul II in the year 2000 to commemorate the 1000th anniversary of Hungary as a Christian nation.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen St Stephen wrote his Admonitions for his son Emeric, was he speaking only to him?\u201d the Polish pope asked. \u201cDid he not write his Admonitions for all future generations of Hungarians, for all the heirs of his crown?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYour holy king, dear brothers and sisters of the Hungarian nation, left you as an inheritance not only the royal crown,\u201d he said. \u201cHe left you the spiritual testament, a heritage of fundamental and indestructible values: the true house built upon the rock.\u201d<\/p>\n

In Tuesday\u2019s address, Mr. Orb\u00e1n said that despite its small size, Hungary has an important mission to play in the world.<\/p>\n

\u201cHungarians make up only 0.02 percent of the world\u2019s population, so how much difference can it make? Is it worth it?\u201d Mr. Orb\u00e1n asked.<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

He then proceeded to invoke the historical example of the 12 apostles, who changed the world by their Christian witness to the death and resurrection of Jesus.<\/p>\n

\u201cStanding up for our persecuted brothers and sisters engenders courage in ourselves and others,\u201d the prime minister continued. \u201cWhen we raised Aid to Persecuted Christians to the level of a government ministry, who would have known how it would grow and influence others?\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

Mr. Orb\u00e1n also shared some sobering facts about the extent of the real-world drama of Christian persecution.<\/p>\n

\u201cFour out of 5 people persecuted for their faith are Christians and some 245 million Christians around the globe suffer extreme persecution,\u201d Orb\u00e1n noted, along with scores of vandalized churches and numerous deaths.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd yet Europe remains silent again and again!\u201d he said. \u201cEuropean politicians seem paralyzed and unable to do anything, insisting that it is all a matter of generic \u2018human rights.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

\u201cBut Christian persecution is not just a humanitarian issue,\u201d Orb\u00e1n insisted. \u201cIt is not just violence against individual persons or groups but an organized attack on an entire culture, including here in Europe.\u201d<\/p>\n

This attack takes many forms, some overt and some more subtle, he said, which includes \u201cpopulation exchange through mass migration, stigmatization, mockery, and the muzzle of political correctness.\u201d<\/p>\n

The prime minister also criticized Western Europe\u2019s indiscriminate acceptance of mass migration as a time bomb for the future.<\/p>\n

\u201cWestern Europe has already provided dozens of militants to the Islamic State,\u201d he noted, \u201cand uncontrolled immigration has produced a radical change in the demographics of the population.\u201d<\/p>\n

The only solution, he suggested, is for Europe to rediscover its Christian roots, its Christian identity.<\/p>\n

\u201cFinally, be strong lest prosperity lift you up too much or adversity cast you down. Be humble in this life, that God may raise you up in the next,\u201d he quoted. In his speech, broken up periodically by enthusiastic applause, the leaderr echoed words written by Pope John Paul II in the year 2000 to commemorate the 1000th anniversary of Hungary as a Christian nation. \u201cWhen St Stephen wrote his Admonitions for his son Emeric, was he speaking only to him?\u201d the Polish pope asked. \u201cDid he not write his Admonitions for all future generations of Hungarians, for all the heirs of his crown?\u201d \u201cYour holy king, dear brothers and sisters of the Hungarian nation, left you as an inheritance not only the royal crown,\u201d he said. \u201cHe left you the spiritual testament, a heritage of fundamental and indestructible values: the true house built upon the rock.\u201d In Tuesday\u2019s address, Mr. Orb\u00e1n said that despite its small size, Hungary has an important mission to play in the world. \u201cHungarians make up only 0.02 percent of the world\u2019s population, so how much difference can it make? Is it worth it?\u201d Mr. Orb\u00e1n asked. He then proceeded to invoke the historical example of the 12 apostles, who changed the world by their Christian witness to the death and resurrection of Jesus. \u201cStanding up for our persecuted brothers and sisters engenders courage in ourselves and others,\u201d the prime minister continued. \u201cWhen we raised Aid to Persecuted Christians to the level of a government ministry, who would have known how it would grow and influence others?\u201d Mr. Orb\u00e1n also shared some sobering facts about the extent of the real-world drama of Christian persecution. \u201cFour out of 5 people persecuted for their faith are Christians and some 245 million Christians around the globe suffer extreme persecution,\u201d Orb\u00e1n noted, along with scores of vandalized churches and numerous deaths. \u201cAnd yet Europe remains silent again and again!\u201d he said. \u201cEuropean politicians seem paralyzed and unable to do anything, insisting that it is all a matter of generic \u2018human rights.\u2019\u201d \u201cBut Christian persecution is not just a humanitarian issue,\u201d Orb\u00e1n insisted. \u201cIt is not just violence against individual persons or groups but an organized attack on an entire culture, including here in Europe.\u201d This attack takes many forms, some overt and some more subtle, he said, which includes \u201cpopulation exchange through mass migration, stigmatization, mockery, and the muzzle of political correctness.\u201d The prime minister also criticized Western Europe\u2019s indiscriminate acceptance of mass migration as a time bomb for the future. \u201cWestern Europe has already provided dozens of militants to the Islamic State,\u201d he noted, \u201cand uncontrolled immigration has produced a radical change in the demographics of the population.\u201d The only solution, he suggested, is for Europe to rediscover its Christian roots, its Christian identity.
