The secretary of the Diocesan Council of the Ryazan Metropolitanate, Father Dmitry Fetisov, believes that the regional government should abandon the state contract with Artemy Lebedev’s company to develop a logo for the region’s brand. The priest considers the post of the designer about the relics of saints to be a reason.
In a message published on December 17 on Lebedev’s Telegram channel, he ostracized people worshiping the relics of the saints. The designer expressed surprise at the behavior of people who line up to “kiss the box of Sergius of Radonezh’s dandruff.” Lebedev called all the saints “ordinary drunks and bosses of varying sizes.”
Father Dmitry in a commentary for the news agency “Infopovod” said that a famous person is obliged to observe certain limits of decency, and not to demonstrate complete detachment from them. He considers the reaction of the Investigative Committee, which began checking the post of Lebedev, justified, because “if you do not react to such loud statements in any way, then what will happen in 10-15 years.” “What country will our children and grandchildren live in? With such a pace, not only believers, but also simply sane, such figures will quickly displace in the public space in the ghetto and will be declared marginalized, ”the priest predicts.
In his opinion, in Russia “a lot has been put upside down.” “The youth face of a well-known bank is a citizen who clearly promotes drug use. For the metro, the logos are being developed by another figure, who will now only have to urinate on our flag so that expensive contracts will no longer be concluded with him, ”Fetisov noted.
“I completely agree with the statement of the politician Yakov Kedmi that the main enemy of today’s Russia is the country’s elite. According to him, she is absolutely anti-national, is not interested in the development of the country and does not even want to associate herself with the Motherland. Often their families live abroad, where their property and money are located. Artemy Lebedev is a vivid confirmation of such words. He feels absolutely calm, has influential friends and does not think about how his words affect other people, ”says a representative of the Ryazan diocese.
He recalled that the government of the Ryazan region ordered the agency of “this spiritual invalid” to develop a logo for the region’s brand. “Now let’s see how patriotic local officials are. Will they find the courage and nobility in themselves to break the contract, or will they prefer not to notice how they insult the memory of the builders and prayer books of our state … ”- Fr. Dmitry summed up.
