What don’t you like about these words of Christ? We take them seriously!

Nothing wrong with the words, but RCC does NOT that them literally.

Just what does the "DO this" refer to?

The YEARLY Passover Meal!

Jewsus said, "Take and eat for this is my body."

Right?

So how do we end up with Him STANDING THERE IN FRONT OF THEM with no chunks MISSING from HIS body?

Later Paul says, "YOU are the body of Christ...".

Do we now become CANNiBLES?

If transubstantiation is true, then He is violating his own law. Lev 17:10 and other places: 12 Therefore I say to the Israelites, "None of you may eat blood, nor may an alien living among you eat blood."

And eating human flesh and drinking human blood is a thoroughly pagan ritual.

It’s not cannabalistic, Elsie. He broke and blessed the bread and said — “Take this and eat; this is my Body.” It’s about transubstantiation.

Why would Catholics not take this seriously when that particular narrative talks about many of Jesus’ followers leaving?

Jesus was telling the truth and we believe his words about the bread becoming his body.

Sorry that you don’t believe that.
