No, I’m always offensive; not defensive.
I just find it weird that non-Catholics bother their pretty little heads over Catholic doctrine. It would never occur to me to go on some Protestant thread and pick apart all the various beliefs. Catholics are sort of like Americans when it comes to other countries - we just don’t care that much about other religions.
Did you not read my comments on this disagreement?
And, this is a thread aimed not at Catholics who accept transubstantiation, but those who don’t.
It even begins with a criticism (false) of Protestants.
I also think it is uninteresting and worthy thing to discuss the Bible.
f the bread is the literal flash of Christ, why do they worry about people who are gluten-intolerant?
