**not a bed time story about a dead man coming to life.**

The resurrection of Jesus is a “bedtime story”?

Just what “religion” are you?

The Eucharist is the risen Christ. If you deny the Real Presence of the Risen Christ, then as Benedict XVI says it amounts to no more than a story of dead man coming to life. The Risen Christ is in his words an “ontological” event changed the very nature of man’s existence. Evolution itself was turned upside down. By dying He gave Life. God who humbled Himself as a human now comes into our very own very being.

“I am the living bread which has come down out of heaven: if any one shall have eaten of this bread he shall live for ever; but the bread withal which I shall give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.”
