My conclusion: they didn’t want to talk about the blood of Christ. They wanted to talk about water, which is only symbolic of a one-time baptism. The blood of Christ is not in their repertoire. Why not, they are gods-becoming, and teach that they will be on a level with Jesus (the spirit brother of saton).

That's an interesting take, considering their disdain for the cross, about the Blood of Christ.

In my years as a mormon, I never really heard the reason for the day-old bread and water...I just figured it was thriftiness. I did wonder at times if the servers who tore the bread into little bitsy pieces washed their hands before doing it, though.

That sort of lack of knowledge about your former faith explains a lot about why you left. The question you ask is common knowledge, right there in the D&C.

We’re instructed to. Usually, we do.

Yes, I attended the Mormon church for a few years. They didn’t talk about the blood of Christ. But they did have communion with bread and water.

Once I became a Christian, I thought back on that. Why did they use water instead of grape juice or wine, symbolic of the blood of Christ?

There is only one answer spiritually. They didn’t recognize the blood of Christ.

This is the mark of a non-Christian cult.

Yet, they want to be considered Christian.

I doth protest.
