"And I'm not buying that any Catholics on FR believe this nonsense either..."

If I accepted the lie that the Eucharist was only a cracker then I too would call it nonsense and reject it.

The truth is not determined by skillful debate or rude commentary on FR. The Truth was established at the beginning of time when God's concept of Himself and creation was manifest in the Logos. It is not our task to conform the Logos to our notions and to the limitations of our education and powers of reason, but to conform ourselves to the Truth.

Peace be to you

Limited education? So it's all about 'the brilliance of some scholar' and the philosophy of some? The HOLY SPIRIT trumps 'man' EVERY TIME.

Are you using reason or limited education? We call it communion where God's Own gather together in union to remember our Savior, The RISEN CHRIST.

conform ourselves to the Truth. means HEAR and OBEY. Remembrance means remembrance. A child knows what remembrance means. The bread is a symbol of His Body and the wine/grape juice is a symbol of His Blood.
