>> The scripture is then read that comfirms that the breaking of bread represents the broken body of Jesus on the Cross who died for our salvation. <<

The scripture doesn't confirm that at all. The bible passage reads "This IS my body". Jesus doesn't say "This ordinary piece of bread can be broken to represent how I was broken, so you can use it as a learning tool to show people how I died"

The baptist ritual of communion is simply unbibical.

If that is true, why does Jesus in scripture refer to the contents of the cup as “fruit of the vine” and not “my blood”? Jesus can’t lie. He and his disciples knew they were drinking wine, not Jesus’ actual blood.

The Catholic church is unbiblical...

1Co 11:24 And when he had given thanks, he broke it, and said, Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me.

Luk 24:30 And it came to pass, as he sat at meat with them, he took bread, and blessed it, and broke, and gave to them.

Luk 24:31 And their eyes were opened, and they knew him; and he vanished out of their sight.

Luk 24:35 And they told what things were done in the way, and how he was known of them in breaking of bread.

Know to them by eating bread??? Nope...Known to them by eating broken bread??? Nope...Known to them by breaking bread??? You got it...
