A group of gay activists gathered outside the Archdiocese of Athens to… kiss! A group of ten people, dressed as priests gathered outside the church headquarters at noon to protest the church reaction against the same-sex civil partnership bill being voted on by Greek Parliament on Tuesday.

Their slogan was “Love is not a sin!” Adding fuel to the fire, they dressed as priests and kissed. Passers by were not impressed by the sight and called on the activists to respect religion and protest elsewhere rather than outside the bastion of Greek Orthodoxy.

At 6 p.m. the homosexual community is gathering outside Greek Parliament.
