ha zombie god. it's just part of th religion i suppose. i am not christian but i have visited various christian churches and many of them do not "eat the flesh of their zombie god" also known as the practice of communion. i was raised roman catholic (but am no longer) and i know that we practiced that ritual. as i understan it catholics ar the only religion that does practice communion, but i may be wrong. however it is strictly symbolic and flesh is not actually eaten, rather a wafer type thing is used (kinda looks, feels , and tastes like stryofoam which was kinda gross).
ps i'm not a judgemental, stone throwing, sinless hypocrite.

Actually im not going to report you for your asinine question. But I will answer it. What you call cannibalism, we dont call that. If you have actually looked at the Bible and even read the parts of the Last Supper. Youd see it was a metaphor. Jesus wasnt using his own flesh in the Last Supper. He was using bread, or little wafers that we have nowadays. And He used wine instead of the blood of Himself. I dont know where this comes in as cannibalism, but if this is cannibalism then maybe I should switch religions. Oh wait it isnt. It has never been in anyones eyes other than yourself, cannibalism. Jesus used these words to express to His followers that this is what He would do for them. And you know what, after going through this answer, I have decided to report you. So thank you, and to the others who answer after me, do not give this "person" your answer just for points. I dont even think this "person" can be called a person, or even a human. I am sorry if this offends anyone, but this is my belief and I am defending it. May God have pity on your soul, thats if you have one.

While (as a devout Christian) I do love a good "Zombie Jesus" comment, the only people that actually think they are truly eating the flesh of Jesus are Roman Catholics, with there crazy transubstantiation belief. Therefore, the reason they do it is because they're crazy.

Im not quite sure if you are serious or not here with this question, so I will assume you are in answering it.
The bread and wine are symbols which Christians partake to remember the Lord Jesus, who died for us, taking the punishment we deserved. In other words, He paid your debt and my debt in full, so that we have the opportunity to be forgiven.
Taking the bread and the wine is for us to remember Christ's death on the cross.
I trust this helps

Communion (which is what you are referring to) is a symbolic practice we partake of. When Jesus said "this is my body", he didnt mean "here peter take a chunk outta my arm." He meant remember this; I'm sacrificing my life for you and everyone else. even back then during Jesus time, the bible says and he took the bread... and he took the wine.

It is Catholics that eat the Body and Blood of Christ. Why don't you ask a Catholic priest to eplain it to you or go to a Catholic website.

i agree, it is odd... although when i think of it that way, it makes me want to be christian. how many times a day can you say you ate the living-dead flesh of your zombie god?
