Jesus for Sale
Marcellino D'Ambrosio, of EWTN fame is encouraging a boycott of Ebay, after getting nowhere trying to educate them about an item that was auctioned through their site.
What was the item you ask? Strap on your seat belts boys and girls. The item was the true body and blood of Our Lord! Allegedly, a host consecrated by John Paul II was auctioned and, fortunately, purchased by a faithful Catholic in Iowa who immediately took it to his parish for proper consumption.
Because D'Ambrosio, and other outraged Catholics, have not made progress in adding consecrated hosts to the forbidden items list at Ebay through their email campaign with "Safe Harbor" (Ebay's support staff), a petition and boycott campaign is being organized.

All views and opinions expressed are soley those of the editorial staff of Aquinas Cafe, but they ought to be yours too, because they border on certain truth. If you can't take it, bugger off.
