Telegraful roman
[edit]I'll try to tackle this issue in the weeks to come. I think it's important and I find it surprising that no mention of this has surfaced so far in wikipedia articles despite the extensive academic literature currently available (in Romanian and in English). Independently from his contribution to Eastern Orthodox theology, Staniloae was a nationalist ideologist, and in the 30s and 40s headed what was one of the most overtly antisemitic church newspapers.

POV
[edit]The article needs to reflect the ongoing controversy. While DS is remembered as an important theologian and (recently as a saint) by the Church he is also known for his aggressive antisemitism and pro-Nazi editorials. The announcement of his canonization was met by the Elie Wiesel National Institute for Studying the Holocaust in Romania with the following press statement (fragment):
Dumitru Stăniloae (1903-1993) wrote articles in the far-right publications Calendarul and Porunca vremii in which he defended Nazi Germany and the link between Orthodoxy and ethnocracy. He also made important contributions in the pages of the magazine Gândirea where he engaged in far-right debates arguing the link between orthodoxy and nationalism. In addition, he also defended legionionism in the pages of Telegrafului român, the official magazine of the Archdiocese of Sibiu. When the Legionaries came to power, Stăniloae stated that "Today (September 22, 1940) our nation once again takes in its hand the sword of the Archangel, the guardian of Christianity, which God has given it. Today we constitute ourselves into a state permeated by faith in God, into an advanced citizenry which stands firm and impregnable in the face of pagan chaos. This, we believe, is the meaning of today's revolution in the life of our state, the meaning of the transformation into a national-legionary state, under the patronage of the Archangel Michael, God's warrior against the aggressive powers of evil. Other nations claim the Archangel Michael as their patron [...] But no nation has accomplished and is accomplishing the work of the Archangel Michael on the visible plane of history as our nation has done and does not accomplish so completely." (Romanian Telegraph, no. 39, 1940). Also for Stăniloae, the installation of the National Legionary State marks the removal of those ministers "who could only speak by reading the anti-religious doctrine of the Jew Durkheim".
More generally, there is abundant literature underlining DS's role as a nationalist and antisemitic writer: this needs to be in the article including the lead. Plinul cel tanar (talk) 07:29, 3 August 2024 (UTC)
