“I don’t think a little satire about religion’s “phraseology” is bad.”

Satire is good when it sheds light on the truth; bad when it leads into error. Yours is of the latter kind.

“Isn’t Christianity all about Christ’s self-sacrifice for humanity? The sacrifice of One for the many so to speak.”

What does that have to do with error?

“I wouldn’t want to delve too closely into the canons of liturgy and ritual that involve eating and drinking the transubstantiated body and blood of Christ.”

That would explain why you have apparently refrained from delving closely enough to understand the matter.

Beats me. I didn’t bring up ‘error’ at all. You are the one who arbitrarily demonizes and consigns my satire to “error” which is merely your opinion as shaped by the teachings of your faith.

You have constructed a tautology that refuses to acknowlege any differences of opinion from your own as possibly valid. And that’s the problem I have with some religious people.
