   MINNESOTA PROF PLEDGES TO DESECRATE EUCHARIST   
      
   July 10, 2008   
      
      
   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 university=3Fs website.   
      
   Here is an excerpt of his July 8 post, =3FIt=3Fs a Frackin=3F Cracker!=3F:   
      
   =3FCan anyone out there score me some consecrated communion wafers?=3F Myers   
   continued by saying, =3Fif any of you would be willing to do what it takes   
   to get me some, or even one, and mail it to me, I=3Fll show you sacrilege,   
   gladly, and with much fanfare. I won=3Ft 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 goddamned cracker), but will   
   instead treat it with profound disrespect and heinous cracker abuse, all   
   photographed and presented here on the web.=3F   
      
   Catholic League president Bill Donohue responded as follows:   
      
   =3FThe Myers blog can be accessed from the university=3Fs website. The   
   university has a policy statement on this issue which says that the   
   =3FContents of all electronic pages must be consistent with University of   
   Minnesota policies, local, state and federal laws.=3F One of the school=3Fs   
   policies, =3FCode of Conduct,=3F says that =3FWhen dealing with others,=3F   
   faculty et al. must be =3Frespectful, fair and civil.=3F 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.   
      
   =3FIt 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.=3F
