The local bishop tried to stop the Cup, but the priests said "Have faith! For it is the Blood of Christ which is Pure and Holy and Miraculous."
No one got sick from drinking from the Cup of Jesus` Blood here in 40 years in the Bay Area since I have heard of this attempt to ban it.
No source of disease has ever been traced to the Cup of Jesus` Blood ever here.
AIDS, etc all were scare tactics but no AIDS,etc., was ever traced to the Holy Cup of Jesus` Blood.
Au Contraire, The Blood of Jesus cures people of their diseases thru faith, not spreads disease.
Two of the priests that administered Communion under both forms had AIDS, as they died of later, and not one person caught AIDS from the Host nor the Cup traceable back to these priests. I received Communion for 20 years from one of these AIDS priests and never got AIDS nor nuthin nor anyone in that congregation neither.

You do know that Aids is a sexually trasmittable disease, also through shared syringes and blood transfusions.
So no one getting AIDS at your church is not proof of anything, except that parishioners werent sleeping with the priests.
When I was a student at American U. (Washington DC) I volunteered as an acolyte. The first Sunday, after church, the priest was upset with me because I had not finished the wine in the chalice. I explained that I was on medication and that alcohol was out of the question. He really got mad then, it was not wine, there was no alcohol... I told him that, the way I understood transubstantiation, it had all the chemical properties of alcohol and I was not going to take my chances. I understood his position, he did not want to finish all chalices, although if he really believed there was no alcohol... Oh, well, it was alcohol when he was drinking but it wasn't if I was drinking!
