Christians have all kind of traditions that I find extremely strange, including: vows of chastity, belief in a virgin birth, eating the flesh of their god and drinking his blood. How would you feel if I mocked those traditions?

Mock all you want. Christians aren't defensive about their faith--btw, the flesh and blood stuff is Catholic tradition and not Christian--because we have the truth on our side and aren't swayed by attacks from unbelievers. And we are to consider it a privilege to share in Christ's suffering when we are persecuted for our faith. If you would read the New Testament with an open heart, you would learn the truth.

So I am not a Christian because I am a Catholic? How odd. If the Body and Blood of Christ are not real food and drink how do you view John 6:55?
