“Sola Scriptura is a self refuting doctrine.”

Is it?

I've heard a great deal about the eating of Christ's flesh on this thread. What is Christ's flesh and how does one consume it?

The same way the early Christians did.

The Early Christians Believed in the Real Presence of Christ in the Eucharist

"Consider how contrary to the mind of God are the heterodox in regard to the grace of God which has come to us. They have no regard for charity, none for the widow, the orphan, the oppressed, none for the man in prison, the hungry or the thirsty. They abstain from the Eucharist and from prayer, because they do not admit that the Eucharist is the flesh of our Savior Jesus Christ, the flesh which suffered for our sins and which the Father, in His graciousness, raised from the dead."

-- St. Ignatius (50-circa 100)
