metadata.value: The article is devoted to the consideration of the role of military priests during
  World War I. The starting points are the assertions that with the arrival of Christianity
  on the territory of Russia, the state power received a powerful tool of patriotic
  education, motivation and stimulation for the processes of defending a civil position
  during hostilities during various years in opposition to an external enemy, a
  mechanism for calling not only military intelligentsia, but also ordinary citizens and
  ordinary soldiers to fight for the Motherland, family, and Russian land. However,
  today among modern researchers there is no single point of view regarding the
  role of military clergy in World War I, and the opinions of researchers about the
  importance of the military clergy in this historical period differ dramatically. On
  the basis of the analysis, it was found that the participation of the military clergy in
  the context of World War I had both positive and negative factors of influence on
  maintaining the fighting spirit, patriotic mood, dedication and desire to protect the
  Motherland at all costs among members of the army of the Russian Empire. Despite
  the presence of a complex of negative tendencies in the influence of the clergy
  during World War I, which was due to a combination of additional external and
  internal factors of the disintegration of the institution of the clergy at that time, one
  cannot deny the invaluable contribution of the military clergy to Russia’s achievements
  in World War I.
