Approval of Bulgarian Orthodox Church declines by 17% in past 3 months: poll

27/2/2012

Sofia. The approval of the Bulgarian Orthodox Church has declined by 17% (from 53% to 36%) in the past three months, reveals an opinion poll conducted by the National Center for Public Opinion Study between 3 and 15 February 2012 among 1,000 adult Bulgarians from all over the country, the center told FOCUS News Agency.

At the same time the criticism of the church goes up by 13%.

The sharp fall in the approval of the church is due to the recent revelation that metropolitan bishops with the Bulgarian Orthodox Church were collaborators with the former State Security, as well as due to the media reports about the property of some senior clerics and conflicts they participate in.
