"That was his real body, eh??? Did Jesus scream when they ripped his body apart before they ate it???"

Because Jesus as God is not metaphysical and is incapable of performing acts outside of the physical reality we are confined to. Is that what you're driving at?

No, no, no. Once again you claimed that Jesus comments were LITERAL, not “metaphysical” or “outside of the physical reality we are confined to”. You said you believe Jesus statement of “this is my body” when he had bread in His hand was LITERALY His body and when He said “ this is my blood” when He had wine in the cup it was LITERALLY His blood.

Jesus could have turned himself into a Rocky Road ice cream cone if he'd wanted to...But there's not a Catholic who ever lived could turn Jesus into an ice cream cone...

Jesus never told anyone to turn wine and bread into his or anyone else's flesh and blood...And Jesus never told anyone how to do it...

You can eat all the communion bread in the world and still go straight to burn in the fires of hell...You had better get born again and stop foolin' with religion...

Jesus is the bread of life, not some stupid wafer or a glass of juice...Jesus obviously wasn't claiming to be a physical OBJECT when He declared that He was the Door, the Vine , or the Water of life...so why make the fatal mistake of thinking that Jesus is a loaf of bread???

What really astounds me is that anyone would be naive enough to believe such nonsense...There is NO magical power or mystical event happening at the Lord's Supper, the Bible commands us to observe it only as a REMEMBRANCE of Jesus shedding His blood and suffering upon the cross for our sins...The Lord's Supper is an ordinance, NOT a sacrament...Nowhere does the Bible refer to the Lord's Supper as the "Eucharist"...
