Metropolitan Ieronymos of Kalavryta of the Greek Orthodox Church believes that the legalization of gay marriage in Greece paves the way for the legalisation of zoophilia and euthanasia.

He said the Greek government's passing of the gay marriage bill "opens the bag of Aeolos for other bills, which will legalize animal husbandry and euthanasia and will be the precursor to the establishment of global governance, which the political systems are talking about today".

At the same time, he noted that Christians " should not be afraid, because we have the great gift of our faith and through this faith in Christ, renewing it, in fact, daily through the Holy Masses, through the devotional life and the Mystery of the Holy Eucharist, we obtain a safe shield, which the arrows of the wicked cannot penetrate."

As reported, Greece passed a law on same-sex marriage.
