ST SAVA TEMPLE VS OSTROG: More and more orthodox tattoos on bodies, each is more brutal than the last (PHOTO)
All tattoos looked the same before, tattoo-artists were using a pattern and they copied the same motives. Now people are more and more deciding to get real works of art on their bodies, and they skin becomes like a canvas.
While searching, we accidentally discovered that the new trend is going among Serbs. Lately there has been a noticeable competition between men tattooing Ostrog monastery and those who decorate their bodies with the Temple of St Sava.

As soon as they do the tattoo with the Temple or Ostrog, Serbs brag about it on social networks, with hashtags "orthodoxy", and "serbianstrength", but there are also "kokarda", or "serbianchetnic".

- Christian symbols and icons don'g belong on the body and it is not fitting to true believers, even though if they come to church regularly, pray and fast. You go to temple to pray, and you don't put it on the body to atone your sins. Some identify themselves as saints and put tattoos of them on the bodies, and they are often sinful, entering conflicts and fights with other people - the clergy agrees .

When you see the next tattoo you will probably think the same thing.

After this you will probably miss the famous JNA (Yugoslav People's Army) tattoos.

However, tattooing the Christian symbols wasn't invented by Serbs. Two years ago, a mummy was found which lived around the year 700. After scanning it was revealed that it has the tattoo of St Michael.
