"Under your apparent understanding, anyone who has ever eaten the wafer handed out by a priest is going to heaven...Ain't gonna happen... "

No, that isn't so. That's not what I believe, not what I said, and not what the Church teaches. You seem to be ignoring what St. Paul said about "eating and drinking to your own condemnation" and becoming "guilty of the Body and Blood of the Lord" if you receive unworthily.

Why would Paul say "Body and Blood" if it were not the Body and Blood?

'Guilty of the body and blood' is pretty meaningless unless you can grab some nuggets with context and other scripture to define it...

So what do you figure 'guilty of the body and blood' is???
