Ark of the Covenant - Still in Use?

[Nau7ik]

From what I heard, it is in Ethiopia and the man who watches over it went blind from its energy.
He says it's like a fiery energy and frightens him.

I’ve also heard this! It’s rumored to be guarded and protected in a Church in Ethopia. The current guardian is one of a long line of guardians. Their life is short and they become diseased because of the radiation poisoning from close proximity. But it’s a sacrifice they willingingly accept. No one has actually seen it though. People take it on faith that it is there.

I don’t think it’s in use, per se, but guarded as a most Holy relic.
