or is it more like swallowing his spit.

It's most like eatting the greens to nurish the soul.

I'm not sure where you get the idea from your last question, as there is not one word in Scripture about swallowing the spit of Jesus. Besides, there's only one occurence that I know of where He used spittle, and that was to heal a blind man. Look up "Jesus" and "clay" in a browser such as www.blueletterbible.org to find the reference.
As to your first question, no, we Protestants don't believe that the wine becomes a blood transfusion. Our Roman Catholic friends believe the Host and the wine actually become the body and blood of Christ, but none of us believe it becomes a transfusion. I would like to know where you found this idea.

No! The whine and bread that the Catholic Church concecrates contains the true Body and Blood of our Lord Jesus Christ. As it is necessary for Jews to eat the lamb after they have sacraficed it for the passover, so to do Catholics believe they're eating the body and blood of the most perfect lamb which (cleansed us from our sins) after offering the sacrafice to God. It's not at all like a blood transfusion. Your remarks are very offensive! I pray for you and anyones soul who knows about Christ, but does not wish to convert!

It's all symbolic.
