It's not bread once it's consecrated, Chip. We believe it is the body of Christ. That's our belief...if it offends you, don't mock it...challenge it with maturity.

Distortions of the facts offend me as they should everybody. Read Paul's own words:

"For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord's death till he come."[I Corinthians 11]

No matter how you slice it, the consecrated bread was still bread to Paul, this bread, that bread, but bread nonetheless, and they didn't carry it through the streets of Jerusalem in some ostentatious procession for the public to worship. Is that mature enough????

Quote the ignorant, inspired by a divorce-seeking English king “King James” edition of the Bible all you want...but it won’t change the fact that the Eucharist is the Body of Christ.

Tell me, to what “confession do you belong?

Does snake handling come into the equation?
