Non-communion-wafer-eating Florida Student to be on Freethought Radio

Webster Cook, a 19-year-old junior at Central Florida University (Orlando) who has recently been in the news for leaving a Catholic Mass with a sacred Communion wafer uneaten, will be on Freethought Radio this Saturday (7/19/08). Catholics have accused him of committing a "hate crime" for not eating the communion wafer during the ceremony! Cook sits on the CFU student senate and his fellow student senators at CFU have begun impeachment proceedings over the matter.
