You can always come back to the church. Click on the Catholics Come Home Network link I just posted. You will be amazed!
This would be a great thread all on its own.
trans=transfer
substantiation=substance
Catholic believe that the substances of bread and wine are completely transferred to the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ.....just as he said at the Last Supper. They are no longer (although they look and taste like bread and wine) mere bread and wine. They are the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ.
