Isn't it a little gross eating other people? But that's what your communion is. "This is my body, this is my blood". You're a bunch of gross sickos. I'm thinking institutionalization.

Guess what people, the DSM classifies communion as a form of religious cannibalism. Didn't know that did ya?

It's a Catholic thing...the practice of "God eating" was stolen from other cultures.

We're all cannibals. Every dead person has been in one way or other returned to the earth. Returned to dust. Their dead bodies have fertilized our crops. Their dead bodies have fed wild animals, and we have eaten these animals on "wild game night" at the highfalutin restaurant. The decomposed chemicals of their dead bodies have gotten into our water. We eat people all the time, just microscopically.
That doesn't directly answer your question.
Transubstantiation is not cannibalism proper.

A common practice among many primitive people was the eating of parts of a human being during a religious ceremony in the belief they would receive the strength and power of the deceased. In our time, this religious custom is called "anthropophagy" or "cannibalism." This is what some of Jesus' disciples thought He meant when He said, "Unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink His blood, you have no life in yourself." [John 6:53] Since the Jews abhorred this pagan custom of cannibalism, many of Jesus' disciples left Him for that reason. [John 6:66]
There was another custom of primitive religion similar to the one just described, but instead of eating the flesh of a deceased mortal, they ate the flesh of a god. Webster's Dictionary defines this practice under the word "theophagy" as: "The sacramental eating of a god typically in the form of an animal, image, or other symbol as a part of a religious ritual and commonly for the purpose of communion with or the receiving of power from the god."
One of the most important Truths that were held by the people who knew the Truth was the feasting upon the flesh of the Word of God, and was accomplished by reading the Words of God in the Scriptures by those who could read. They also knew that eating the flesh was not enough, but would also have to drink the blood. The Spirit of God is the blood and gives Life to the flesh. Without the blood there is no understanding of the words. Those who could not read ate the flesh of the Word by listening to someone read aloud the Words, usually in an assembly in order to feed as many people as possible at one time. But partaking of the Lord's Supper was not restricted to assemblies since those who could read were able to eat it daily in their homes, sharing it with family members and others who lived near enough for daily contact.
This was one of the very first Truths adapted to pagan beliefs when it was changed from eating the flesh of the Word of God to the pagan practice of theophagy. This change drew many pagans into the church, increasing its membership, because they were already familiar with this custom. It was the pagan ritual of theophagy, in which the primitives believed that the animal, image, or other symbol that they ate had been "magically changed" by a priest or witch doctor's chant into the real flesh of the particular god. In this way, they did not believe that they ate a mere symbol of a god, but were eating the real god and would receive the real power of the god. And for hundreds of years, the apostate church forbade its members from following the commandments of the Word of God, forbidding them to partake of the flesh of the Word of God, the Bread of God and washing it down with the blood of the Word and the Wine of the Spirit. So it was then forbidden to read the Scriptures.
