The spokesman for the Slovak Bishops' Conference, Marian Gavenda, said that fears of discrimination are "unjustified." In his view, the concordat only anchors more firmly relations that already exist, and the "prestige of an international agreement" provides a "certain guarantee"-- for example, if the regime changes.
The chairman of the Slovak Methodist Church, Pavel Prochazka, said that he does not see the concordat as discriminatory but feels that although the Catholic Church does not receive preferential treatment de jure, de facto it has a privileged position.
