So-Called "Professor" Desecrates Eucharist and Qu'ran

P.Z. Myers has carried out his threat — The Great Desecration. Perhaps he fancied himself quite the free thinker for including The God Delusion among the items he desecrated, but instead he demonstrated the depth of his ignorance of words; one cannot desecrate what is not held sacred.

My comments on his blog:

I teach English at one of Asia's premier science and technology universities, working with its graduate school of life science. There are many Christians in the department, both among the faculty and students.

And even among the non-Christians and atheists, such a juvenile act would never be considered. In Confucian societies, the title "professor" presupposes a certain level of maturity.

Also, the professors and students here in South Korea tend to stay in their labs until midnight or after everyday of the week, studying protein interactions and such things that might someday lead to cures for cancers and other diseaseas.

You've got too much time on your hands, sir, and are covering up the fact that you're not a very good scientist.

This diversionary non-sequitor was the best a commenter on his blog could come up with: "Is a cracker more important than a person?" M.Z. Forrest answered that question — It isn’t a cracker:

That which is consecrated is not a ‘cracker’. It is flat bread. Crackers are typically crisp owing to the use of fat, and they are typically heavily salted. Matzah, the bread used for communion hosts, is properly made of wheat flour and water. So as not to allow any natural yeasts to act, ideally it is prepared within 20 minutes and baked. As a caution to those who will be tempted to offer Matzah recipes from the Internet with all manner of ingredients, they are bastardizations. While many of them do qualify as crackers, what is used for communion hosts does not qualify as a cracker.
