The Eucharist is the body blood soul and divinity of Christ under the species of bread and wine. This is the faith. This is the summit of Catholicism. Meaning thru the words (only) of Catholic priests, the Eucharist is the non-corporeal body and blood of Christ under the species of non-existent bread and wine, until the non-existent species begins to manifest decay, at which point said body and blood no longer exist either. This is the fallacy of Catholic faith. This is the summit of Catholicism.
But which is not what the NT church manifestly believed , based upon the only wholly inspired substantive authoritative record of what the NT church believed (including how they understood the OT and gospels).

It's refreshing to see a Catholic who wants to uphold the values of Catholic teaching. If the Catholic Church would truly follow the teachings of the Catholic Church, the distinction between Catholicism and Protestantism would become apparent and make our job so much easier.

And your belief is exactly why we Catholics do not allow non-Catholics who follow a different interpretation of the NT to receive the Eucharist.
The point is: You respect my faith by not doing what we believe is wrong. I will respect your faith in not receiving what I discern is truly Christ in the Eucharist.
