"Apart from the catastrophic sacrifices and material and human consequences, wars destroyed the future ethical norms and moral values of many generations. In years of many wars this territory was penetrated by a wave of deep and primordial hatred which in the rage of war destroyed human hearts and all human relations and certainly religious relations. For 45 years communism ploughed negative furrows in the souls of many people. It destroyed most of what not even World War II had erased. It destroyed the sense of the holy, the sacred, morals and honesty, the religious and ecclesiastical sense."
