S.A.L.I.G.I.A., Superbia, Avaritia, Luxuria, Invidia, Gula, Ira, Acedia is the third install from from the Orthodox Calendar series (#OC2015).”S.A.L.I.G.I.A.” pays tribute to social tolerance.

The story takes place on the right bank of the Moskva River south of Moscow, where some priests believe that same-sex unions are NOT a sign of the coming apocalypse, contrary to what Russian Orthodox Patriarch Kirill may claim. These priests set out, in a humorous way, to remind the world that homosexuality is NOT one of the 7 deadly sins and in fact that Jesus Christ never even referred to homosexuality as a sin!

Three years after its creation, OC is still the only organized global effort against homophobia in the Orthodox region. Our creative team along with our gay-friendly guests are more enthusiastic than ever to work on this new series illustrating the ancient sins forgotten by a declining Church obsessed with demonising the LGBT community.

Both the classic and explicit versions of the wall calendar are available via www.orthodox-calendar.com now!
