“There are a handful of priests in Germany who work in the satanic underground...."

I would be curious to learn whether a Priest, with evil intent, can actually consecrate a host?

I know the "form and substance" rule, but can't believe intent is not a factor.

Technically, the intent to consecrate is all that is necessary if a priest with the faculties does consecrate the Eucharist.

Judas was a failure however so are these creatures.

This is utterly horrifying. It makes me sick to my stomach.

I believe an evil priest *can* consecrate a Sacred Host for the purpose of this most damnable desecration. The “intent” needed is the intent to “do what the Church does” when consecration occurs. So I think the only intent needed is transubstantiation; not an intent to honor God and worship His real Sacramental Presence.

It’s giving me the shakes.
