No one has yet posted what I believe is at the root of anyone leaving - no longer believing in the Real Presence.

Jesus said it was so, what's not to believe?

Some people know the Scriptures better than Jesus does.

Just ask them ... they'll tell you all about it.

I hear you but I have read almost 70% of Catholics no longer believe in the Real Presence.

For the anti Catholic, it is not about Jesus. It is about Paul. Remember we went through a series of lectures that Jesus was irrelevant - it is Paul to whom we must turn. The Gospels were to the Jews only. Jude was to the Jews. Peter was to the Jews. John was to the Jews. James (the epistle of straw) was definitely to the Jews only. The lecture continued to the effect that since the Jews rejected Jesus, anything that was said to them was completely separate from what the Gentiles were to believe.

I challenged several of the antiCatholics to count the times and amount of time that Paul went to the Jews, as opposed to their claims, based upon Scripture. There were two who confirmed my statements. They habitually debate honestly. The rest huffed and puffed and disappeared.

Their premise is wrong and therefore their conclusions are also wrong.
