Other Christians do NOT believe that Holy Commnion is the REAL PRESCENCE of JESUS.....they just think that communion is a SYMBOL.......HUGE difference!!! The Catholic Church does NOT have to change it's dogma.
That is a simplication. I am Presbyterian. We believe in the spiritual presence of Jesus, not the physical.
It is not merely a symbol. That is Baptist thinking.
However, we can scream all day about "this is my body" and "eat my flesh and drink my blood" and it will get us nowhere.
I will point out "do this in remembrance of me"...hardly a statement indicating a literal feast of Christ's skin, bone, joints etc. this is my body etc. are simply metaphors. It is like when you use something to stand for something else, you will tend to simply say "blank is blank," not "blank is the complete and full representation of blank," but that is what you mean.
Don't care what others think. We KNOW what it is. That's what is importnat. What we KNOW NOT what others think. It's our religion.
