Really? You must be trolling now.

******

Show me the WORD Eucharist. No wait...we're back to latin now which is Rome....and excuse me but wasn't it in the Roman Coliseums that believers were fed to the lions, burned at the stake, and crucified? You know...the ones who refused to tie themselves to Roman Catholic and her pagan rituals. Oh silly me.....this will be like the Holocost, it just never really happened. Someone made the whole darn thing up just to make the RCC look bad. I believe it is YOUR system that has spilled the most blood in the name of God, yet you point your finger at others.

Show me the word 'checkbook' in the Bible. No wait, show me the word 'Bible' in the bible. What kind of argument is this? Eucharist, as well as Bible are descriptive words. They describe a specific act in the former case, and a specific collection of writings in the latter.

wait...we're back to latin now which is Rome

Actually, 'eucharist' is a word with Greek roots (actually it goes even further back but...) which means 'thankful'.

But your ignorance aside, it's all irrelevant because whether you call it 'Eucharist', 'Communion', the 'Remembrance Meal' or 'Ostrich Feathers' the act doesn't change.

and excuse me but wasn't it in the Roman Coliseums that believers were fed to the lions,

Um, yeah....and, what?? America aborts 4,000 babies a day. America's about 85% Christian, mostly Protestant. What's the correlation here?

burned at the stake, and crucified? You know...the ones who refused to tie themselves to Roman Catholic and her pagan rituals.

I think you have it backwards. The days of the Coliseum were when the pagans still ruled. And it was largely the persecuted Catholics (among others) who were fed to lions and burned at the stake for sport. I am really not sure where you're getting your history from.
