Episode: Mount Athos Warning: Greece’s Citizen’s Card
Description: Originally delivered in 2010, this homily by Fr. Peter Heers explains how Greece’s citizen's card is more than an ID—it reshapes how citizens buy, sell, and interact with the state. In this informative overview, Fr. Peter explains what the citizen's card is, how RFID and databases work behind it, and why bishops, Mount Athos, and civil groups have raised concerns about privacy, conscience, and electronic governance. Learn the stakes, the technology, and the spiritual questions shaping this debate.
