I went to Catholic high school during the 1963-65 time period. Although I wasn't Catholic, my parents sent me there as an alternative to the degenerate public school that I was attending.

I learned quite a lot about the Catholic belief system, but never embraced it. This belief--that the bread and wine are literally transformed into the body and blood of Christ, is called transubstantiation.This goes against what the Bible plainly teaches, and conveniently avoids the question: which Body are we talking about--Christ's original human body or His resurrection body?

BTW, I was saved in 1980 after hearing, understanding and accepting Christ's once for all sacrifice for me.

This goes against what the Bible plainly teaches

you are correct sir, for the Bible clearly records Jesus saying “ This REPRESENTS my Body”. why don’t the Catholics understand this? they MIGHT have a point if Jesus said “This IS My Body”, but we have to go with what as you say “the Bible plainly teaches”
