'The company, Santi Protettori, advertises a subscription with a choice of three saints for €3 ($4.50) per week, with a prayer to go with them for an extra 50 cents. The company promises that "the images of the protective saints will always be with you." The service starts on Wednesday, with a TV ad campaign to be launched Friday to attract more of the faithful. Not just saints, but also Jesus, Our Lady of Lourdes and the late Pope John Paul II will be available.'
I've got a slogan for them... Christ! What a bargain! or maybe, Dial-a-deity. Still, it's no worse than selling statues or any other sort of religious icons I guess.
