After nearly a decade of battling eBay over the sale of sacred relics, the International Crusade for Holy Relics (ICHR) is calling on members of the online auction house’s community to take a stand against the sale of the sacred by staging a cyber protest on Good Friday.

“As the world prepares to celebrate the mystery of the death of Christ, there are some who would rather sell him out, again, like Judas,” said Tom Serafin, founder and president of the ICHR.

For years, the ICHR has lobbied eBay to stop the sale of relics and enforce its own rules barring the sale of body parts and a ban on the sale of offensive materials but to no avail. So this year the group is calling for members of eBay’s online community to stage a Good Friday cyber protest by sending emails this Friday registering their dissatisfaction with the online auction giant.
