You argument falls flat:
“They didn’t eat the Serpent, they just believed the promise of God.”
They were never commanded to eat the bronze serpent. The followers of Christ were commanded to eat Jesus flesh bu Jesus Himself in John 6 and the Last Supper stories and that was prefigured by the eating of the Passover lamb in Exodus.
“These are prefigurings, metaphorical connections, not literal means to being saved.”
Except Jesus could not have been speaking of eating His flesh as metaphorical since we know the ancient Hebraicism for eating someone’s flesh meant to despise them (see Psalm 27:2).
Best book on the subject is Sungenis’ http://www.amazon.com/Not-Bread-Alone-Historical-Eucharistic/dp/1579181244
And like the Clinton’s shift the topic to something else.
My cousin is a minister in Italy. There’s a lot of stuff going on there, i.e., crying/bleeding statues, etc. Demonic.
You really can’t deny there’s a difference between Climtonian and Clintonian. No one can deny there’s a difference between denying Jesus can be sacrificed multiple times and believing the one sacrifice of Jesus can be offered in the Eucharist multiple times.
Links and documents please.
Not just your say so.
Back up your claims.
And Fatima is left up to each individual Catholic to decide whether they accept it or not.

“And like the Clinton’s shift the topic to something else.”
You posted it to me in Post #373. I responded. If anyone shifted the topic, it was you.
