“The word ‘altars’ is interesting. Don’t protestant churches have altars? Some I’ve been in, do...where the grape juice and crackers are set up before being passed out. So, what is the purpose of the altar? Nothing is sacrified on them, right? Altars can be places of sacrifice, or places where religious ceremonies are performed, or both, or neither.”
I would respond, but I don’t have a clue to what your point is.

Actually J, B is a Lutheran, they DO have altars and they believe that Christ is present on the Altar, and the True Presence is there in the Eucharist.
They are not like wmfights or rn or metmom's groups -- the Lutherans believe in the True Presence in the Eucharist, they have very orthodox teachings on that point.
