Okay, I'll agree that genocidal fuckheads are probably worse than people who chuck the Eucharist in the garbage. But I can kind of understand the thinking, in a curious way. I mean, for someone who's convinced (rightly or wrongly) that cracker is, quite literally, the body of Christ . . . I guess I can see how they'd be rather upset, and how they might count it up there even with genocidal fuckheads.
Personally, I support the idea of questioning everything. But you don't need to deface someone else's religion and belief system just to make your point. Saying that he thinks it's "just a cracker" is fine. Making a spectacle out of throwing it in the garbage (the banana peel was a particularly petulant addition, LOL) is just being spiteful.
Does God mind if he tosses the Eucharist in the garbage? If God is in that cracker, I'm sure he bloody well does. Does chucking the Eucharist in the garbage do anything other than make this guy feel vindicated in some way? Probably not. But either way, at least he's using his free will. :D
