What beautiful articles. Thank you!
The Eucarist is sanctified by the Holy Spirit and magnified by prayer in the church.

I will read over it. But let me say I believe Jesus is there when we take communion. He is there whenever 2 or more are gathered in His name. I just don't think it literally becomes His flesh and blood. Honestly though is it so important if you think it is a symbol or if you think it is His real flesh and blood? Isn't it more important that we are doing it in remembrance of Him? That we are doing it with a pure heart? That we are right with Him when doing it? It seems to me that these things are the most important parts of communion.

So you're saying that once a week Christ returns in corporeal form in the form of a piece of bread that Catholics then murder and eat? So you're saying you worship the "Eucharist" - a piece of bread whom you reckon to be Christ?
Bizzare!

I am Catholic and have always been brought up believing that God is truly present in the Eucharist during Communion.
Regardless, I have my doubts at times..so thanks for this link.

I bet you all didn't know that the Eucharist being called Christ's body comes from a pagan tradition of eating the body of the false god tammuz, Christ says, "This do in remembrance of me" as a remembrance of his sacrifice, Christ however did not cut part of his body and say, "this do in remembrance of me"

I believe in the one G-d, former Catholic here, people believe what they want to believe, personally, I believe that much of Christianity is idolatry, not heeding the first commandment.

You so-called 'body of evidence' cannot be substantiated or verified. Try again.

I read it, but I still don't believe. The evidence is tainted and the observations are biased. Truth demands objectivity.
