Summary/Abstract: The text addresses the legal protection of religious feelings in the context of Orthodox Church teaching. The analysis of the issue requires an initial definition of the interrelationship of secular law and Christian ethics, followed by a presentation of the problems arising from established legal acts, their correctness, scope and degree of application against actions with ambiguous or difficult to determine intentions. The text focuses on an unambiguous and universally applicable Church view of the issue from the perspective of Orthodox ecclesiology and Church law. At the same time, specific legal solutions are presented from a narrower perspective: that of Polish legislation and the ecclesial principles of the Polish Autocephalous Orthodox Church.
