THIS IS A BLOG ABOUT GAY S*X AND PRIAPIAN SPIRITUALITY.
What I was thinking of what happens if the person is sick and the seconds after eating the Jesus cracker he vomits it back out, does he have to lick it up from the floor, and from the priest's garment because not even a crumb of Jesus is allowed to end up outside of people's stomach.
If the cracker ends up in any other state other than being eaten that is sacrareligious, because it's literally torturing Jesus because that's his body.
The consecrated species retain the outward appearance of bread and wine even as there is a true, real, and substantial presence of Christ's body and blood.

/r/catholicism is super different from the rest of reddit...everyone there is hyper-conservative and trad and VERY eager to prove to everyone else that they're the best most strictest catholics ever
It's a real thing with Catholicism that the young people are the traditionalists and radicals. It's not even the LARPers on Twitter (they don't go to church), the youth raised in the faith (who don't stop practicing in college) are the most devoted to it.
I was about to say, I grew up Lutheran and the pastor always said that's a metaphor and you didn't have to partake if you didn't want to. Not the literal fricking body of Christ Catholics man
I grew up in an East Orthodox denomination and was taught it is a metaphor. No clue why Catholics think it is literally but they are fricking kitties about it. You will never be as weird as Orthodox Chadstians.
I've seen priests of my church eat the communion that comes out of babies mouths.
Our communion is warm water and wine with pieces of bread floating around and the priest CAN NOT allow any to be spilled.
The priest breaks a chunk of bread off with this long butt spoon and its basically a soup. So it falls out a lot.
Nieighbors are lucky if they catch it on the cloth they hold.
Going through Orthodox school (catechumen), they just teach it is a Holy Mystery and call it a day. All that matters is you eat it:
In the Orthodox view, all of reality—the world and man himself—is real to the extent that it is symbolical and mystical, to the extent that reality itself must reveal and manifest God to us. Thus, the eucharist in the Orthodox Church is understood to be the genuine Body and Blood of Christ precisely because bread and wine are the mysteries and symbols of God's true and genuine presence and manifestation to us in Christ. Thus, by eating and drinking the bread and wine which are mystically consecrated by the Holy Spirit, we have genuine communion with God through Christ who is himself “the bread of life”
Idk how you can read that and interpret it as anything other than a metaphors, but because I wasn't kittywhipped into believing that fire and darnation exists for everyone who doesn't fill out their clerical work properly I don't have to know what the original intent was. Seethe more

bro, lutherism keeps to the same faith as catholics about the Eucharist. if your pastor said so, consider burning him at the stake (ironically, because this is /h/atheism (otherwise iw doul have been (unironically)))))
Man i was raised catholic and even though we still had the "body of christ" thing it was normal to not want to lick priest's fricking fingers and just take the communion in hands and eat it when you get back to your seat idk whats wrong with those weirdos over here

But the rules are the rules and for good reason since we can't tell whether they're protestants making that simple mistake or a witch trying to make off with Our Lord to desecrate in a black mass, we have to respond to everything the same way.
Yeah that comment made me lol. Black masses became one of those infamous scary elementary school urban legends spread by adults, along with stuff like people giving you drugs for free to get you addicted (where are they?!)
No, some drug dealers genuinely will offer you free drugs. It's not an insidious marketing scheme, though. It's because they're losers and that's the only way people will hang out with them.

I infiltrated one at site in a forest in Germany around 1417. They had all kinds of events going on. Like witches riding around on broomsticks and people dunking their heads in a stream in some profane mockery of baptism. The worst was that they had some unbaptized babies ready to put in the stew. One of my friends is a priest and he did a quick emergency baptism when the cooks weren't looking. You should have seen their faces when they realized their ingredients were ruined!
Oh no wait, I did all this in the sprawling epic 1992 RPG Darklands.
The subdeacon brings forth the chamber pot and presents it to the nun, who has come forward. The nun lifts her habit and urinates into the font. As she passes water, the deacon addresses the congregation
Then they stick a wafer in a naked lady's girl-peepee while somebody rants in French about how Jesus is fake and/or gay.
Yeah, witchcraft is probably more popular with zoomfoids than Catholicism is. Most people who walk off with their Eucharist don't have any malicious intent but it's better to be safe than sorry.

Russians wish they had watered down floor wine with baby spit and chunks of soggy bread.
Also, it's the holy sacriment. Apostates like you might not understand this, but the divine liturgy is kind of a big deal in Christianity.
