Paul Zachary Myers, a professor at the University of Minnesota Morris, has pledged to desecrate the Eucharist. He is responding to what happened recently at the University of Central Florida when a student walked out of Mass with the Host, holding it hostage for several days. Myers was angry at the Catholic League for criticizing the student. His post can be accessed from his faculty page on the universitys website.
Here is an excerpt of his July 8 post, Its a Frackin Cracker!:
Can anyone out there score me some consecrated communion wafers? Myers continued by saying, if any of you would be willing to do what it takes to get me some, or even one, and mail it to me, Ill show you sacrilege, gladly, and with much fanfare. I wont be tempted to hold it hostage (no, not even if I have a choice between returning the Eucharist and watching Bill Donohue kick the pope in the balls, which would apparently be a more humane act than desecrating a go*****ed cracker), but will instead treat it with profound disrespect and heinous cracker abuse, all photographed and presented here on the web.
Catholic League president Bill Donohue responded as follows:
The Myers blog can be accessed from the universitys website. The university has a policy statement on this issue which says that the Contents of all electronic pages must be consistent with University of Minnesota policies, local, state and federal laws. One of the schools policies, Code of Conduct, says that When dealing with others, faculty et al. must be respectful, fair and civil. Accordingly, we are contacting the President and the Board of Regents to see what they are going to do about this matter. Because the university is a state institution, we are also contacting the Minnesota legislature.
It is hard to think of anything more vile than to intentionally desecrate the Body of Christ. We look to those who have oversight responsibility to act quickly and decisively.
Hey tough guy, go to a mosque and point your butt the wrong way.
Or desecrate a Koran , Draw a picture of Muhammed, Buy a dog, eat a ham sandwich..or basically live free...ok the last few were tongue in cheek..but if he wanted to impress me do the first two and video tape it and post to you tube with your address..then I may be impressed..
Basically the same folks who say Christians are intolerant are the same ones who can’t stand the thought of Christian Beliefs..
No, I mean where did you find the link in the first place?

Be forewarned: he has a DU-caliber vocabulary.
One of the more vacuous lines of logic used by unbelievers to justify their obstinacy is that nothing "happened" when they performed some sacrilegious or sinful act or when they crossed a line which they had been warned not to cross. We hear it all the time........"I did such and such and no bolt of lightening struck me down.....God didn't zap me!"
It appears this dolt is operating along similar lines of reasoning.
I’ll pray for this man. He does not know what he is doing.
Can anyone out there score me some consecrated communion wafers?
So he's a dope.
I wonder what Paul Zachary Myers FR screenname is?
Most of the crowd that screamed out for Jesus' crucifixion, who spat on Him and mocked Him as he made His way to Golgotha - well, those people went home and went about their daily business without incident and lived the remainder of their lives in apparent comfort and peace.
Not too many of them would have lived to see the Temple destroyed almost 40 years later.
They, much like Myers, didn't realize that they were already living in a hell of their own making.
I would literally prefer to be dead and gone than to be Paul Myers.
What a dreary and unending chore life must be for someone who thinks and acts as he does.
What an incredibly sick human being.
Notice how eager these heros are to attack Catholics, but they have a blind spot toward the “Religion of Peace?”
He knows exactly what he is doing. He is doing evil on purpose and with malice aforethought.
I pray that if he gets his wish that Jesus will show him the Truth as has happened in other Eucharistic miracles.
c) College and university teachers are citizens, members of a learned profession, and officers of an educational institution. When they speak or write as citizens, they should be free from institutional censorship or discipline, but their special position in the community imposes special obligations. As scholars and educational officers, they should remember that the public may judge their profession and their institution by their utterances. Hence they should at all times be accurate, should exercise appropriate restraint, should show respect for the opinions of others, and should make every effort to indicate that they are not speaking for the institution.
There are entirely too many lefties in the Academy who have no concept what the italicized words mean.
Its a Frackin Cracker!
Apparently, there are many who agree, and probably wouldn't object to the professor doing this, even here on a conservative forum.
Hey, he's just being consistent in his non-literalism. Too bad so many Catholics refuse to understand this.
