Dear wagglebee,

By the way, a couple of more pertinent facts. Among weekly Church-going Catholics, the belief in the Real Presence was higher, and 44% of weekly Mass-assisting Catholic chose the correct response describing transubstantiation.

As well, the poll was conducted over the telephone, and thus, folks were being asked to choose between these theological explanations verbally, over a phone, without the ability to see on paper what was being asked.

Not a very promising methodology.

Thats not saying much is it? What is the % of self describing Catholics that attend mass even 1 time a month?
