Orthodox Calendar is a collection of wall calendars and videos featuring nude and semi-nude members of the Orthodox Church. With racy, ironic and homoerotic imagery, the organization hopes to defeat homophobia in the Orthodox Region.
For the year 2016, Orthodox Calendar has created another steamy calendar featuring bold colors and ironic humor. The calendar's title is 'Sancta Paraphilia' which translates to "holy desires." This calendar highlights the hypocrisy of homophobia in the church and showcases Othodox priests engaging in kinky activities as well as compromising positions. Making the forthcoming calendar extra special, 'Sancta Paraphilia' also includes anti-gay Russian President Vladimir Putin and Patriarch Kirill I of Moscow dressed in sexy lingerie.
Anti-gay supporters can purchase this in-your-face calendar on the Orthodox Calendar website and ring in the New Year with sultry activism.
