>> Lutherans in fact DO believe in the true presence of Christ in the Eucharist, though they call it consubstantiation,

> No real Lutheran does this.

Oh really?

“Take, eat; this is the true body of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, given into death for your sins...

“Take, drink; this is the true blood of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, shed for the forgiveness of your sins.”

Then, Martin Luther’s Small Catechism: (http://bookofconcord.org/smallcatechism.php)

VI. The Sacrament of the Altar
As the head of the family should teach it in a simple way to his household.

What is the Sacrament of the Altar?

It is the true body and blood of our Lord Jesus Christ, under the bread and wine, for us Christians to eat and to drink, instituted by Christ Himself.

The ‘oh really’ is for ‘consubstantiation’. Really.
