No, actually I don’t.

1) Can you offer any evidence that the Fathers issued dogmatic teachings on astronomy?

2) Can you offer any reason why dogmatic statements from the Fathers on astronomy would effect dogmatic statements on the Real Presence?

Well then let me make my point more plainly, and that is to say that the “Fathers” were not infallible then, just as there are none who are infallible today. To say something is true only because the “Fathers” of 2,000 years ago deemed it so is circular reasoning at best.
