Priest Suspended For Riding Hoverboard During Mass

Without a doubt, hoverboards are one of this year's must-have gadgets. However, as quickly as they rose to fame, they are also 'quickly' getting banned in major cities around the world such as New york, around Australia and also in london.

As it would appear, even the church is not a big fan of the hyped 'toys' either as they suspended a priest for riding a hoverboard up and down the aisle while celebrating mass.
The diocese of San Pablo, Laguna confirmed this in a statement released on facebook.

According to the statement, The Eucharist demands utmost respect and reverence. It is the Memorial of the Lord’s Sacrifice. It is the source and summit of Christian life. It is the Church’s highest form of worship. Consequently, it is not a personal celebration where one can capriciously introduce something to get the attention of the people.
