We didn't have priests roaming our feed for a long time: the Russian Orthodox Church urged Russians to hate themselves to avoid sins. Pastor Andrey Tkachev said that self-love leads to selfishness and the fall. In his opinion, the less a person loves himself, the better. "When you love yourself, you also love the sin that lives in you. It turns out that you are a sinner, an egoist," said the priest.
