[Dr. Eckleburg]

This is the problem with Catholic-bashers, they're like little kids playing Army. They continually invent reasons why their pretend shots score hits, and the other side's shots miss. As long as there is no arbiter, the only ones they have to convince is themselves.

So it's "Catholic-bashing" to refer to a priest as "another Christ" when they call themselves by that name?

Christ tells us to remember Him when we drink the wine and eat the bread of the Lord's Supper. No alchemy involved. It is spiritual, not physical. We are reborn by the Spirit, not by materialistic odds and ends of this world.

That's pagan worship of the creation, and not true worship of the Creator.

"Shall I fall down to the stock of a tree?" (Isaiah 44:19).

God forbid.

When you twist "In Persona Christi" (In the Person of Christ) into "another Christ" (anti-Christ), you are.

Christ tells us to remember Him when we drink the wine and eat the bread of the Lord's Supper. No alchemy involved. It is spiritual, not physical. We are reborn by the Spirit, not by materialistic odds and ends of this world. That's pagan worship of the creation, and not true worship of the Creator.

See my paragraph on the problem with Catholic-bashers, again.
