Seems to me that what Jesus did about those who desecrated the temple by using it as a market is much more appropriate to this case.

Yeah, if you are not a registered ebay user then you can't get in as easy. However I remember posting in an ebay thread once and there were many of us that are using it. It used to be fun for me, but I am going to continue to complain until they realize that what they are doing is sort of like a hate crime. They are allowing this to happed because it is Catholocism.

Yeah, SS is really a trip. There are a few others that have piled on too. I think the thread will be closed as soon as ebay realized how critical us Catholics are being of them.

Most likely a sucker game IMO.

Sad fact: Most Catholics are unable to tell the difference between a consecrated or non-consecrated host. FYI: a true satanist can.

The True Presence of Christ leaves the species as the host begins to decompose. I doubt that the morons auctioning the host know this, but most Catholics don't realize this either.

I agree with your last statement, but disagree with your first. No one can tell the difference between consecrated and non-consecrated hosts by appearance or by anything else, whether he is an orthodox Catholic or a Devil Worshipper..

A host is consider vaild until it is no longer in the same form not just when it starts to decompose. Check the link out

"Dear mil,

Certainly, if one dilutes the Host or the Precious Blood so that the is no longer the appearance of bread or wine, the Lord's Body and Blood are no longer present. But otherwise, the Real Presence remains.

Fr. Vincent Serpa, O.P."

I think ebay is showing it's true colors in this matter. Respect some but not all! Sounds a little like "Four legs good but two legs better!"(animal farm) philosophy.

GOD BLESS

[font=Comic Sans MS]This whole situation is so vile and outrageous, it sickens me.
However, I wish Catholics had the same indignation about those people in mortal sin who partake in the Holy Eucharist.
The line to the Blessed Sacrament is always monumentally longer then the one to the confessional.[/FONT]

Sign the petition if you have not already. 506 signatures so far.

st_ignatius · #24 Apr 15, '05, 1:46 pm

Oops. :-) Thanks Emmy!!

Fitz · #25 Apr 15, '05, 5:51 pm

There are now over 90 responses and some are very unfavorable. HELP!
I am posting on the ebay collectible message board, and I will have to tell you that there are some that are very disrespectful of our religion and all religions really. I have posted three times, but I want to bombard the message board so that ebay knows it is just not me alone that is complaining. I want more complaints to show up. If you are ebay user, sign on and go to http://forums.ebay.com/db2/forum.jspa?forumID=9

I have posted the petition there and the directions for how to boycott Ebay.

He doesn't have to prove anything...there are a bunch of sick people out there that will want it just so they can desecrate it...especially if the Pope is the one who consecrated it...proof or no proof. These people are sickos...plain and simple.

The Ebay boycott now has a website at www.boycottebay.org, where Catholics can get information about the boycott, the facts that led up to it, and how they can join the effort.

BOYCOTT!
WWW.BOYCOTTEBAY.ORG

I've closed my evilbay account.

I also wrote to them to tell them that they are perpetuating a fraud. How do they know it's "consecrated" and by whom????

Blessings,
