“Although the person of Christ and the Virgin Mary do not need any human defense against human insults, the insults and attacks against Christianity will continue and increase in the 21st century. “Fanaticism and disrespect for the other is not an exclusive feature of ‘religions’ or ‘non-religious’, but a horizontal feature of many people, conservative and progressive,” the Church of Greece said in a statement issued by the Press Office. on “About the offensive post of Mr. Elias Mosialos on social media”.

Specifically, the professor posted a photo with the Virgin Mary and Joseph, apparently in a humorous mood.

In more detail, the announcement states:

“The insulting post, carried in the name of the representative of the Hellenic Republic in international organizations for the coronavirus Mr. Elias Mosialos, on Christmas Eve, which mocks the religious faith of millions of Orthodox Christians of the country he represents, and the related protests come to our knowledge, give rise to the general reminder that, although the person of Christ and Our Lady do not need any human defense against human insults, the insults and attacks against Christianity will continue and increase in the 21st century. Fanaticism and disrespect for the other is not an exclusive feature of “religions” or “non-religious”, but a horizontal feature of many people, conservative and progressive. It is also clear that no one can invoke the argument of privacy for their racist behavior when they hold positions of state responsibility and express themselves publicly.

We wish you a Merry Christmas with love, long-suffering and prayer “for those who hate and love us”.
