Every Sunday Christians congregate to drink blood in honour of
their zombie
master.
So what's wrong with a little ritualized cannibalism among
consenting
adults? ;-)
See how amusing you think it is when they come to eat YOUR
brain :-)
Then isn't it completely grand that it is always and ever has
been /symbolic/.
Not according to the majority of Christians who believe in
transubstantiation.
"Eastern Orthodox, Oriental Orthodox, and Roman Catholics, who
together constitute the majority of Christians[18] (see List of
Christian denominations by number of members), hold that the
consecrated elements in the Eucharist are indeed the body and blood
of Christ."
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transubstantiation
Which article, of course, deals with precisely and technically why the
practice of Eucharist, including and especially among those who
believe
in transubstantiation, is definitely not cannibalism.
But you knew that.
People who claim
a) they are eating human flesh and blood and that
b) that isn't cannibalism exemplify why
c) I find religion hilarious.
