I'm telling you right fricking now that nothing at all happens when the guy in the robe waves his hands and does his little chant. That's what I'm telling you. Not a damn thing happens. No miracle, no blood, no nothing. It's a fricking cup of wine. Get the frick over it.



Once again, we're back to you thinking that just because you assert something, it's true.

Agreed. That's a bad thing. Now, pick anything out of the bible and show me proof, or else it's just an assertion.

I'll wait.

What person with any level of intelligence actually believes that the wine has actually been turned into 'the blood of christ'? In the year 2016 do people still seriously think that the preacher has this magical ability to wave their hands and perform some seance and boom this unexplainable miracle just occurs right there in the chalice? Of all the idiotic things people still believe in 2016 I'm truly amazed that this is one of them.
The question was and still is, do you like drinking after a bunch of strangers?

Just as soon as I assert them as scientific fact, I will.

Since you're Bill fricking Nye all of a sudden, please expound on your opinion of what happens during the turning of the wine into the blood of christ during this christian ritual....specifically:

1. What chemical or other reaction occurs that changes the molecular structure of the wine?
2. What is the catalyst?
3. How much LSD do you take on a daily basis?

Dude, it's the blood of Christ not wine.

I'm no church regular but Ive always been repulsed by that and have never taken a sip. The thought of drinking backwash of spit and pieces of wafer is truly disgusting. Wiping off the rim with a rag doesn't do much. Then to top it off the priest knocks back any leftover wine to empty the chalice. Nasty


How many of you enjoy drinking others people's saliva and shite breath?


SO basically what you're saying is you think organized religion is stupid and out dated. People simple make their own lot in life with out the help of a fictitious man living up in the clouds to guide their way. Only to start another thread bashing religion would likely become stale and slip to the second page before the 3rd or 4th response.

So the back door approach of making fun of a tradition within the catholic church to soften up the room and hope that the thread gradually moves toward the point of making fun of those that still believe in an invisible hand guiding their lives to some mystical paradise in the sky.

Neat...

No, he's telling you that if you take that damn cup out of that baws hand and test it in a lab for it's chemical makeup and composition, it will be fricking fermented grapes and not the DNA of Christ. This is not an opinion. Just because you believe something to be true doesn't mean that it's actually true. It is and always will be wine in the fricking cup. It is not to be taken literally. Neither is being born of a virgin or walking on water. We know that is physically and scientifically impossible. It's insane that people even debate about this.

You're trying too hard.

My question is literally about the sanitary concern. I'm in no way making fun of a religious tradition but nice try.

It's not that we are making fun of 1.2 billions people's faith , we are making fun of people for follow the Catholic Church who has no problem with the Preist abusing young boys. If Popeyes endorsed the $5 meal and child butt sex would you still eat there? I doubt it

Try to find where I claimed otherwise. If scientists were able to get DNA from Jesus while he was on earth, I don't think it'd look different than any other humans. I still believe He was God in flesh. Keep attacking that straw man though. It's the best you can do: I get that.

It's obvious that you don't understand what is believed about the sacrament.

Because you say so? Jesus didn't say it was symbolic. His followers and the early Church sure didn't believe it was either.

Science can't make that claim. They can claim it's never been observed scientifically and that there is no known way according to what we currently know for it to naturally happen. That's it.

Cockamamie rambling such as yours is why people are abandoning religion in droves.

So, no more scientific or logical failings to bring to the table?

Over a billion followers and growth remaining steady, over 2 thousand years old and has outlasted every empire and heresy it has encountered. I think we'll be ok.

Some priests will go on about how it's the literal transformation into the blood of Christ. But most just leave it be.

When they do go on I always think, well, if you really want to prove it you could just do a chemical analysis on it. Centrifuge or whatever they use to determine that. I know when I have a blood test they have like two pages of stuff they can gauge.

I thought people have faith in God not the Catholic Church. You are confused.
