What “organization” denomination do you belong to?
Catholics believe in Christ. The Mass, both the Liturgy of the Word and definitely the Liturgy of the Eucharist centers on Christ.
Have you ever been to a Catholic Mass? If not, then with what authority do you speak?
Yes, I have been to many Catholic masses, and never knew Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior when I was Catholic, nor do I remember being invited to have/develop a personal relationship with Him during my sojourn there. It seems that being a good Catholic “externally” was sufficient.
As to the teaching that the “elements” turn into the literal flesh and blood of Jesus, I have to disagree.
Do you think Jesus was serving Himself literally at the last supper (passover before he was crucified) when he said “this is my body,” and “this is my blood,” or do you think He was speaking symbolically?
