communion is a metaphor. The bread or cracker is meant to represent the body of christ, and the grape juice (only catholics use wine) is meant to represent his blood. The idea is that consuming the body and blood of christ (metaphorically speaking) will help you become more christ-like yourself (meaning more purity and less sin). Atleast thats how I understand it to be.

The Catholic faith teaches that the wine is literally transformed into the blood of Christ and the bread is literally transformed into the body of Christ.

Some Irish Catholics, like my parents, were taught as childrenthat was his ACTUAL blood. That the priest had some magical powers. The nuns told them a story of a boy who put the communioin cracker in his pocket and his pocket started to bleed real blood- Christ's blood.

My parents left the church cuz they were taught all this voo doo crap.

Christianity has never spread an ounce of good.
Killing people, and burning them at the stake, demolishing age old cultures?

Some muslims blow people up because their God demands in. Lets slag their religion off and call them packie bastards. Oh wait, thats wrong.
Yes homosexuallity is wrong in the bible, but the bible says other things.
"Let he who is without sin cast the first stone"
And I think God asks people to reserve their judgement for Him. Love everyone regardless the sin. Yes the sin is wrong, but the person is not. And God can forgive *** people too, thats like saying its all right to kill and rape, and you can be forgiven, but sleep with the same sex and its over. B.S
Thats why people hate our religion, because people get self righteous. I love ya all, ***, straight or bi. Because I choose to as a person, not just as a christian. Choice was the first gift, so use it to spread a bit of love, k?

No, I disagree with Islam as well.

You're right, the Bible does condemn homosexuality. In fact, according to Leviticus 20:13 you are to put homosexuals to death. Why don't you do this? Your Bible directly commands the murder of homosexuals, yet you choose not to kill them. Why? Are you not disobeying God?

Kurt_Cobain · 01-08-2007, 05:42 PM

Its the old testament, with the eye for the basis. Christians live by Christ's words, and to turn the other cheak. We don't want to kill for sin, because its a sin itself. And if you read the whole bible, you'll know what to die means:
And if a man lie with mankind, as with womankind, both of them have committed abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them."
It means they'll be cast into the lake of fire and not inherit eternal lifee, so it is to die.

So if they're paying the price themselves, what right does the Church have to say no to Civil Union?
