The Oryol diocese is outraged by the local museum's Yuletide performance

The clergy of the Oryol diocese are outraged by the theatrical performance organized by the local museum of Granovsky. The event was timed to coincide with Christmas time and, according to the press service of the diocese, was dedicated to "explaining the methods of divination."

A significant part of the spectators of the performance were schoolchildren. Thus, the message of the diocesan press service says, "teachers, who are supposed to form and teach, contribute to the destruction of the child's inner world."
