Ask the Patriarch
Can I Buy Merchandise

from Megan

This question was originally asked a couple of months ago, and I chose not to publish it or my response. A recent accusation in Talk Back of being a huckster has caused me to revise my reply and publish it.

Is there any sort of merchandise that can be purchased that is related to the church?

The Patriarch replies:

Megan:

I tried this for a while with prices set to allow me to break even over the course of a year. However, the amount of effort required to do it properly was not supported by sales volume

In addition, I do not want to the web site to be seen as just another way to make money - and operating a store could lead to the wrong impression. Someone might even call me a huckster.

If you want to create your own poster or T-shirt, there are graphics freely available on this site in Meditation 168.
