the Eucharist, which IS Christ

I'm sure you're familiar with this:

An anti-religion Minnesota biology professor expects to receive dozens of consecrated Communion wafers in response to his public solicitation that people send him the hosts in order that he may publicly desecrate them.

My question is this: Is he actually harming Jesus or is he just making an ass of himself with a cracker?

well you ask Christ that.
Remember, Christ said that His Kingdom is not of this world, so when He was arrested His Father would not send down angels to His rescue. He was mocked because of this display of ‘weakness’.

In the ‘weakness’ of the Eucharist Christ’s glory is shown to those with a listening heart.

(btw... Paul also talks about sins against the Eucharist as sins against the Body of Christ)
