If poverty is a virtue, then it is my only virtue.
I have several of these from when I was a kid. They’d give them out as prizes for good behavior or selling the most Christmas Seals.
I agree that, to an adult, it’s kind of tacky, but to a kid it’s cool, and might even persuade one to use it . Presumably that’s the idea.
I have to add that not all prizes were so hokey. I’m still impressed with the modern-art plastic statue sculptures they used to produce on a regular basis. Stylized Madonnas with Child or saints in aerodynamic housings. No joke or snarkiness intended – they were clever and classy.
Wanna bet?
Wanna bet? (even when I was still Catholic - I just felt guilty after)
I sure hope not. That’s a sick joke. 
lol.
Amen.
My boyfriend, a “recovering Catholic” as he likes to call himself, saw the Rosary last night and chuckled madly. Then started talking about how he never thought he’d see another one and we should tape the Jesus on the crucifix to the wall because glow-in-the-dark Jesus is just too cool, but it would be cooler if it was a Buddy Christ.
And now he has decided that we must convince Kevin Smith to market glow-in-the-dark Buddy Christ’s. Although I admit, that would be pretty cool…if not a little creepy at night.

Somehow that strikes me as awesomely funny.
Mr. Lissar received several very cheap plastic rosaries from various people during World Youth Days here, but not a single glow-in-the-dark one. Too bad. I think it would be cool.
