VIDEO REPORT - Believers Ignore "Christos Anesti" And Chant Greek Nat. Anthem!

Many Orthodox believers gathered at the St. Dionysios Areopagite Church on Saturday night in Athens to take part in this year's Easter liturgy and just when the Archbishop of Greece began singing the customary "Christos Anesti" dozens of people -outside of the Church- began to instead sing the Greek national anthem. As you will see in the video, not even the loud sounds of the microphones were able to silence their voices. The look on the face of the Archbishop of Greece Irineos who was trying to sing "Christos Anesti" is totally priceless. Following the "Christos Anesti-national anthem" performance, believers turned their attention -and anger- to the politicians attending the event (specifically interim premier Lucas Papademos, MD parliamentarian Olga Kefaloyiannis, Minister of Labor George Koutroumanis, Minister of Development Anna Diamantopoulou and ND MP Ioannis Tragakis). Believe it or not folks, the crowd totally ignored the spiritual significance of the evening and began to scream at the politicians to leave...  and eventually they were forced to do so.

Editor's note - What a mess... but expected.
