I have been following the recent spate (in the US) of people (no good for nothing crazy students and similar ne'er do wells) taking the holy wafer into their mouths but not consuming it and basically smuggling it out of the church to desecrate in some humorous/youtube way.
The church have been livid with outrage, to the point of attempting to effect an arrest on grounds of kidnap.
Silly Idiots, these people are wasting their time.
I would love to have 'Kidnap of a cracker' on my criminal record.
It would go just under 'assault and battery of a custard cream' and 'indecent exposure in front of a Carr's water biscuit'
I hadn't heard of that! When I was a kid and had to attend CCD (confirmation of Catholic doctrine, i.e. Sunday school) I had a teacher who told us stories of people smuggling the host out of the church after it had been consecrated and the host bleeding or doing other crazy (or 'miraculous') things.
