The Apostle Paul states: 1 Cor 11:29 because whoever eats and drinks without recognizing the body, eats and drinks judgment on himself.
He was not taking it as a metaphor.

Now you are mind reading Paul. Hmmm. How do you know if he was taking it literally or metaphorically? The verse in question merely asks the believer to self examine their life/behaviour to see if they are worthy to participate in communion. Better to self examine that be judged by God.
