Is … Is this milk safe to drink?
It’s safe. It’s just milk. Also my dad gave me boobs, look.
Yes my child
I was raised without religion, and decided as a teen that I’m atheist. For that, I will be forever grateful to my parents.
Imagine learning about all the weird rituals as a young adult. I didn’t grow up with the idea that virtual cannibalism is just another normal Sunday.
Fun fact some Christians believe the bread and wine literally turn to blood and flesh when you eat them. Like miraculously and in the most literal sense transform. I think there was some pretty big schisms/fights about this.
Catholics mainly are the ones to push this.
Yeah, that’s Catholicism. They’ve got a couple of weird magical aspects to their faith. Protestants believe it’s all symbolic. Not sure what Orthodox Christians believe about this.
I still think it’s weird that that’s the part Catholics go with literalism on. They usually go with things being metaphors, like the seven day creation story’s bit about ‘let the earth bring forth’ being a reference to evolution, but this thing, specifically, is literal.
As the oldest denomination mysticism is bound to be present and in some cases persist.
The Orthodox Church is equally the oldest (extant) denomination as the Catholic Church and they’re not as literal on this topic.
@bdonvr @DarrinBrunner which makes me think: can you get the eucharist on Fridays.
To be fair though, it really does. Everything we eat and drink gets broken down into nutrients, absorbed and used to make new cells. There’s nothing spiritual about “you are what you eat.”
JFC.
Jesus Food Christ
Jesus, Jesus. C’mon man.
Yes the hummus is something. It also was something else, but it is now something. Best avoid it, unless you’re really into recycling…
Hummus is cummus.
The hummus is the product of taco bell!😂😂
He wasn’t being metaphorical he literally blood let and peeled off pieces of his torso.
As an atheist, I never thought much about this line before. But now that I think about it, it sounds like an analogy to try to explain nonduality.
So we’re not going to talk about that unexplained hand with a knife on the left?
Whats that about?
Why all the kink shaming as soon as it just sounds like canabalism?
