This is an awesome entry from Rorate. I've had this argument too many times to count, and it always begins and ends with this same "quote" from St. Cyril. When you mention the stuff about smearing the Precious Blood (and your spit) on your eyes and such, people swear that you are making it up, not realizing that this is all very dubious information.
Read the whole thing. Understand why it's such a big issue. The more we treat the sacred things like common things, the more apt we are to stop believing they are sacred.
