Do you believe in transubstantiation?

No I don't.

Or since it's considered a miracle like the others that you appear to dismiss, do you write that off as *magic* as well?

Yes.

If the miracles in the Bible are all magic as your posts indicate you conclude they are, why go to mass? Isn't it then just a magic show?

To me it is. But believers go to mass to receive sacraments. Believers also pray to God believing God hears them and listens to them. If you can believe in Incarnation and Resurrection, and that Jesus fed a multitude with a few fish, what stops you from believing the Holy Spirit (not the priest) changes the bread to the body and the wine to the blood of Christ?

Questions posed to Kosta50 and his answers...

"Do you believe in transubstantiation?"

No I don't.

"Or since it's considered a miracle like the others that you appear to dismiss, do you write that off as *magic* as well?"

Yes.

"If the miracles in the Bible are all magic as your posts indicate you conclude they are, why go to mass? Isn't it then just a magic show?"

To me it is.

Instead of trashing the apostle Paul, RC apologists' time might be better spent instructing guys like Kosta who says the mass and the miracles of Christ are all a "magic show."

Does this mean that Kosta50 is anathematized by Rome like Protestants?
