Transubstantiation is an especially nasty filthy concept..

I would hate to jump to conclusions here, but is it fair to say you find something objectionable in the doctrine of Transubstantiation? I don't know, I just had a feeling. ;-)

Have you checked out Aquinas on that? I ask because it will be easier to wholeheartedly reject it if you're sure what it is. And there are some misunderstandings.

I kind of agree with our Orthodox brothers on the quasi-philosophical discussion of the Eucharist per Acquinas. I wish it were not so analyzed as it cannot be known using the tools of reason.

However, I hope they can sympathize with the West and see, per this discussion, how the necessity arises.
