But then the Mass -or- Jesus become enfleshed in the "wafer" introduced into the believers flesh by a fleshly priest in a fleshly ceremony.. for fleshly reasons... is also weird..
Some protestants sects have some weird stuff as well..
Mormons turning to "MORON-I"(the angel) for "wisdom" must surely be an inside joke..
There are many Cargo Cults the only difference is the cargo..
This weirdness comes to us directly from the Apostles, who got it from Jesus. Christianity, in other words. May I enquire what faith you hold, if not Christian?
