Our Lady of Tinos is the major iconolatrous hoax shrine in Greece. The hoax complex is built around a pseudomiraculous icon which according to a stupid iconolatrous myth was found after Mary Nazarene appeared to an iconolater and revealed to her the place where the icon was buried. The icon is widely hoaxed to be the source of numerous pseudomiracles. It is by now almost completely encased in silver, gold, and jewels, and is commonly referred to as the Megalochare, Great Grace, considered a protectress of seafarers and healer of the infirm! The icon was found on the very first days after the creation of the modern Greek State, henceforth Our Lady of Tinos was declared the patron saint of the Greek nation! The church, built in the Renaissance style, was inaugurated in 1830 and since then it constitutes the major iconolatrous pilgrimage in Greece. The church receives a vast number of huge donations in silver and gold votives from stupid iconolaters each year.

> Iconolatry, a form of idolatry, is the veneration of images. The Council of Hieria in 753 expressly forbade the making of icons, and ordered all pictures of Jesus and the saints to be removed from the churches, saying that they ought instead to be decorated with pictures of birds, flowers, and fruit. This council was held near Constantinople, and all attending bishops were from the Constantinople Patriarchate. The other patriarchs refused to send any delegates. The Second Council of Nicaea held in 787 reversed the decisions of that council.

> Venitist Joe Nickell traveled to Toronto to investigate a weeping icon in a Greek Orthodox church. In front of a dozen television, newspaper, and radio reporters, Nickell collected samples of the tears for Toronto police lab analysis. The police termed the icon a fraud and concluded that the substance of the tears was olive oil. Last fall, over 20,000 people visited the church to witness the pseudomiracle, donating an estimated two million dollars. The priest of the church has been accused of perpetrating the hoax and stealing the money from the church's coffers.

> In June 326, Great Constantine had his eldest son Crispus, by Minervina, put to death by cold poison. In July, Constantine had his wife, the Empress Fausta, killed at the behest of his mother, Helena. Fausta was left to die in an overheated bath. Nevertheless, Constantine and Helen, the most sinister apes of planet Earth, are the most popular saints of the iconolatrous Church of Greece, the most corrupt Church on Earth! Orthodox Christianity is a form of iconolatry, which belongs to idolatry. Orthodox Christians are iconolaters, which makes them idolaters!
>
> Venitis notes this sinister iconolatrous Church is established by the stupid constitution as the official religion of Greece, the most corrupt country on Earth! The clergy's salaries are being paid by the stupid iconolatrous government. All students in primary and secondary schools in Greece are required to be brainwashed with religulous iconolatrous propaganda. Liaisons between the sinister iconolatrous church and stupid government are handled by the stupid Ministry of Education, George Orwell's Minitrue. There is even a religulous party in the Greek Parliament for stupid iconolaters, which gets 6% of the popular vote!

> Mount Athos in Northern Greece is known as the Autonomous Monastic State of the Holy Mountain. This religulous World Heritage Site is home to twenty Orthodox iconolatrous monasteries and forms a self-governed monastic State within the sovereignty of Greece. Venitis points out Mount Athos, considered the foremost Academy of Homosexuality, got involved in myriad financial scandals in cahoots with the government of Greece, the most corrupt government on Earth. The Vatopaidi Monastery, built during the second half of the 10th century, is considered the richest and the most corrupt monastery on Earth, infamous for grabbing lands! Renown Arianna Huffington once sent her billionaire hubby to visit Mount Athos, and he came back an elightened gay!

> Basil Venitis, an Athenian orator, points out the most corrupt bishop on Earth was Archbishop Christodoulos of Athens, aka ayatollah Christollah, godfather of Chrysopege mafia, archbigot of Balkans, master of perjury, trial-fixer, chauvinist, antisemite, racist, grand robber, nymphomaniac gay, Vesuvius of vanity. Christollah's civil name was Christos Paraskevaidis. Christollah walked on dead bodies to reach the ivory throne, and he led a skulk of crucifoxes to devour the flock of faithful sheep.
>
> Christollah organized myriad scandals, manipulated Greek justice, manipulated the election of the Patriarch of Jerusalem, tried to manipulate Greek politics, and tried to impose the religion specification on IDs. Christollah asked iconolatrous students whether they wanted to be minced meat or meat, explaining that foreigners want to turn Greeks into the meat-grinder, while meat is a solid thing! Christollah frequently criticized the principles and values of what he characterized the atheist Enlightenment, and which he contrasted to Christian values!
>
> Basil Venitis, twitter.com/Venitis, points out Chrysopege means Golden Fountain, but angry Greeks spell it Chrysopyge, which means Golden Buttocks! Bishop Kallinikos was the founder of Chrysopege and the spiritual father of Cristollah. Kallinikos tried to rape a cantor, chasing him around the Holy Table in the Piraeus Cathedral! Bishop Panteleimon of Attica was withdrawn from duties for sex orgies with young men and embezzlement of five million euros. In the wake of suggestions by fellow members of the unholy synod that he resign, iconolatrous Panteleimon's reaction was very revealing: If I speak, there will be an earthquake. I'll take many with me to my grave, including Christollah and Chrysopege! Bishop Chrysostomos of Zakynthos predicted that a tsunami was coming and it would reach Christollah himself.
>
> After the September 11, 2001 attacks on the World Trade Center, iconolatrous Greeks were shocked to hear Christollah attribute the attacks to despondent men who acted out of despair caused by the injustices of the Great Powers! In 2004 he criticized globalization as a bulldozer that is out to demolish everything, on account of those who want to rule the world without resistance or obstacles! In 2003, he fell out with Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew of Istanbul, and Christollah' name was stricken off the Diptych of the Orthodox Church as a punishment. Christollah died of AIDS on January 17, 2008.

> Churches already struggling to cope with myriad sex abuse scandals, have been hit by revelations of billion-euro thefts, opaque accounting, and Byzantine extravagance. While the grassroots iconolatrous faithful are being forced to make cutbacks, most bishops enjoy the trappings of the church huge wealth.
