But Paul in I Corinthians 11:26 tells us that Communion is a memorial proclaiming the death of Jesus "until He comes". Therefore Jesus isn't present in the bread or wine.

That is a non sequitur, because the Second Coming is not the same kind of coming as transubstantiation.

In your theology it sure is. Don't Catholics confess at Communion that this wafer is the "body, blood, soul, and divinity" of Christ? You believe that He is present, not just in spirit, but physically and bodily in the elements.
