Support PZ Myers!

Please, any secularists and right-thinking Christians, have a look at PZ Myers' latest blog, and send a message of support as asked:

All this stems from PZ's post about a bloke who didn't eat a communion wafer, but popped it into his pocket and walked out with it instead.  He's gotten death threats, has been accused of a hate crime (so, it's acceptable to eat, and later poo out the Eucharist, just don't walk out of church with it?), and as PZ says, 'it's a frackin' cracker'.  I don't know why the bloke didn't consume it - maybe he's on a diet or something, but the church's over-reaction is astounding.  And now, because PZ's pointed out how idiotic that over-reaction is, he is being subject to death threats, and a campaign to have him fired from his post at the University of Minnesota.  The original post can be found here:
