Are you a Catholic?

Yes. BTW, I consider Francis a heretic. Can't understand why he hasn't answered the Dubia.

Do you consecrate the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ all by yourself?

Of course not. What is your point? Christ told us to TAKE this and eat. He never said 'Open your mouth and let me insert this'

My point is stop claiming we all priests when sacramentally most of us are not. If you can't consecrated the Holy Eucharist or give absolution after the confession of sins, drop the canard.

And what of the Chalice? Should the Priest spoon the blood of Christ into your mouth? Or do you “Take and Drink” as Scripture says?

How do you know? Were you at the Last Supper?

And Christ didn't "tell us", He told his Apostles, his first priests.

You were not personally present at the Last Supper, and it's bad exegesis to assume the his command applies directly and without elaboration to you personally. That's my point.

The fact that any Catholics get hung-up over this sort of thing when tens of thousands of babies are being slaughtered in the womb every day (and politicians who vote for that are served Communion in the hand, mouth or whatever) is both sad and laughable.

Priorities, people.
