Tantum,
I don't think I can play dumb anymore, because I have gripped to him before about it a couple of years ago. I have to deal with some of this same stuff at the University Center in Chicago. I am too darn outspoken, which means I can never plan dumb, as useful as it might be at times. At my UC, I know the Pastoral Associate holds Rahner in high regards, which brings up "transmystification," whatever the heck that means, all I know, is it is somewhat iffy.

Rahner is not my favourite theologian and "transmystification" is simply manure which is used to mystify people about what he really believed and disguise the fact that he was really a heretic.
In my book, anyone who wastes time trying to come up with alternatives for "transubstantiation" has probably lost their faith already.
Sounds like you might be better off looking for a Mass elsewhere and encouraging your fellow students to do the same!
transmystfiwho?
