Susreti sv. Franje Asiškoga sa sultanom Malikom al-Kamilom 1219. u Egiptu (u gradu Damietti) za vrijeme Pete križarske vojne i fra Anđela Zvizdovića sa sultanom Mehmedom II. el-Fatihom (Osvajačem) u Bosni na polju Milodraž 1463. nakon pada Bosanskoga Kraljevstva označuju prijelaz iz paradigme nasilja u paradigmu nenasilja. To je susret dvojice nosilaca onodobne najveće svjetske moći s dvojicom franjevaca koji su nosioci najveće svjetske ne-moći, tj. ljubavi kao samoponiznosti (kenosis). Vojna i svaka druga moć uvećavaju se tako što njezini nosioci stalno pobjeđuju svoje neprijatelje. To je logika neprijateljskoga pristupa onima koji se ne podređuju toj moći. Pobjeđivanjem moć stalno raste i tako sebe stalno uzvisuje. Moć može rasti samo ako pred sobom ima neprijatelja. Nemoć, tj. ljubav kao samo-poniznost odnosi se prema svima kao prijateljima i tako samu sebe ponizuje. Ona se prema neprijateljima odnosi kao prema prijateljima. Tako ljubav kao samoponiznost može obratiti svaku vojnu i drugu moć, ali ne može obratiti (promijeniti) svetu moć, tj. moć koja samu sebe apsolutizira. Fra Anđeo Zvizdović ostaje vjeran evanđeoskoj logici sv. Franje Asiškoga, tj. logici dobrote i samoponiznosti, dakle, ostaje vjeran logičkoj formi (L. Wittgenstein) Evanđelja. Iz toga slijedi da su pobjednici i pobijeđeni jednako udaljeni od svoje slobode. Two meetings: of St Francis of Assisi with sultan Malik al-Kamil in Damietta in Egypt 1219 during the Fifth Crusade, and of Fr. Anđeo Zvizdović with sultan Mehmed II el-Fatih (Conqueror) on the field Milodraž in Bosnia 1463 after the fall of Bosnian Kingdom, mark out the transition from violence paradigm to nonviolence paradigm. It was a meeting of two holders of world power with two friars – holders of world's highest powerlessness, i.e. love as self-humility (kenosis). Military and every other power are amplified by victories of its holders over their enemies. It is a logical approach to those who don’t submit to their power. The power is constantly growing and self-exalting by victories. The power needs enemies for it to enhance. Powerlessness, such as self-humility, addresses everyone as a friend, the-reby humbling itself. Powerlessness treats enemies as friends. So, love as self-humility can convert each military and any other power, but it can’t convert (change) holy power, i.e. the power absolutizing itself. Fr. Anđeo Zvizdović remains faithful to the logic of St Francis of Assisi, i.e. to the logic of goodness and self-humility, consequently he persists in logical form (L. Wittgenstein) of Gospel. Hence, the conquerors and the conquered are equally far from their freedom.
