I don’t think you have a concrete grasp of the concept of transubstantiation. The act of “declaration” neither causes or changes anything. It is not some form of “ritual magic”. As some one once said, you have the emphasis on the wrong sy-LA-ble.

Really? So when does the wafer and wine become Jesus?
Nicely explained. It’s mind-numbing that Christians would ever consider The Lord can invoked like some type of B-Movie spirit. So odd.
