description In my article, I will seek to honor John Frank as a believing Christian. He is a thinker, writer, poet, scientist, philosopher, great citizen, an extremely capable person and a historical figure of our culture, spirituality in the years of European revival in the 19th century. and in our Ukraine, which was in the most difficult times of its existence. Just a few people have awakened our people from sleeping to working on themselves, to striving to become themselves. They prepared us for our statehood at the end of the XX century. Such were Shevchenko, Shashkevich, Franko, among them later little-known Chikalenko and other forerunners of our will. Today, as it seems to me, our people are not fully aware of the merits of our great figures, to whom we are so grateful. They are either obscured by others, or sheltered by various historical streams to make them useful precursors in the role of social figures or revolutionaries, or anything else just to distance their figures from high spiritual values, in particular from Christianity. It is not an unknown phenomenon and only in our people. Pope John Paul II wanted to insert in the Constitution of the united Europe the statement that European culture and civilization had its roots in Christianity, that is, in Christ, but did not allow any underwhelming power. So do those who want to see Shevchenko and Frank atheists.
