Since there's nothing special about the wafers themselves, why don't they use something that tastes better? Like white chocolate and macadamia nut cookies. It would still be the body of christ

The monks in the monastery where my father was going for the eucharist where using some super sweet unleavened bread, and my great uncle who was also a priest was using party crackers for the eucharist when he was doing his yearly family BBQ.

He was also a nuclear physicist. I was really disappointed growing up when I realized that even if a lot of priests and monks are actually very smart and liberal, they have to deal with a lot of superstition and tradition (and also a lot of people joined their rank because they want some redemption because they are pedophiles or gays or alcoholics)

Well that was my story that the body of christ can absolutely be a party cracker if the priest is ok with it

Having at one point been on the inside, your perception isn't wrong. There's a reason "recovered Catholic" is an expression people use.

I recovered from Catholicism so hard that I'm a Satanist now*

* not really, not in the religious sense of actually believing in and worshiping a supernatural devil, but the Satanic Temple is extremely my poo poo because:


Basically they advocate for social justice and the betterment of society while trolling the poo poo out of humorless conservatives.

I wish satanists would also make some delicious beers and cheese instead of always thinking about gothic clothes and baphomet statues. Like I understand it's important to have a conterweight to religious dogma, but satanists can't even exist on their own, they need religious people to justify their existence. That's a bit sad.

A page back, but this literally happened to me once. I was lured in by a really amazing baritone singing a cappella, and then they closed the doors. I'm now convinced that the doors of churches are intentionally made to open and close as loudly as possible, so that no one can leave without it being really awkward.

Listen if you transubstantiate something that leaves crumbs you’re gonna have bits of the son of God all over your chapel. That’s hella rude, no two ways about it. Gonna leave the body of Jesus to get moldy in the piles of your carpet, smdh.

Catholic mass is designed around this. You're supposed to put the whole host in your mouth before chewing. Then after they're done with everyone they clean out the holders to make sure there's not crumbs.

The Church of Satan was founded by Anton Levay, and it's just Libertarians who wear black. They're terrible.

The Satanic Temple was founded as a church and sate separation protest group, and is pretty good.

The church of Satan is a weird mix of people pushing back against very obvious 1st amendment violations, hardcore libertarians convinced that society is using religion to hold straight white male job creators back, and straight up neo-nazis obsessed with the occult.

The weirdest part of Christianity to me is that there are multiple Christian denominations in America that are technically under the authority of Queen Elizabeth.

The Church of Satan and the Satanic Temple are completely different organizations. The former being goth Libertarians and the latter being more woke and trollish. Not sure where the nazis fit in exactly, but I expect they take it more seriously.
