We, of course, did not mean any disrespect, but as Christians we felt that we should be neutral and not participate in such nationalistic ceremonies. ​ — John 17: 16.
Loomulikult ei tahtnud me olla lugupidamatud, kuid kristlastena me saime aru, et peame olema erapooletud ning mitte võtma osa sellistest natsionalistlikest tseremooniatest. — Johannese 17: 16.
