“The historical record. I think you are well aware of it and that’s why your post indicates a wish to withdraw from it. Which is it? “

I’ve examined the historical record via original sources during my four years of seminary. I find it is not an unbroken record. For this reason, I do not believe it withstands scrutiny. That is my informed opinion. This was my response to your claims about Church Fathers and an unbroken chain from the Apostles.

My view is much more pointed. The passage in I Corinthians does not support the position you seem to want to impose on me (via your specific posts). I pointed out why I do not believe it, based on context and Greek language. You do not appear either conversant or perhaps desirous of checking either for whatever reason. Your call.

No problem.

Show the breaks then. Show the Christian fathers writing against the real presence in the Holy Eucharist.

You think the Greek fathers were not aware of the context? You discovered this that they missed?

Your position is just not credible.
