Religious Items
Doing
any sort of search on eBay for religious articles will turn up thousands
of examples ranging from small medals to architectural elements like
windows, and if you want to the actual chruches themselves. Six churchs
were up for bids at the end of March 2005. Unlike any other type of
item sold on the auction site All of these items have a special meaning
to a previous owner and deserves a special respect.
There is a wide variety of beliefs on whether items like this should
be sold on eBay. The ICHR (International Crusade for Holy Relics)
is a group that tries to stop the sale of relics from Catholic, Espocopalian
and Eastern Orthodox religions on eBay and others such as Amazon.com
and traditional antiques dealers.
