True, sir. Part of the problem is, I have one sibling who is rather judgmental about this kind of thing. It probably does not help that I am the fallen-away Catholic in the family, and that I make no pretenses about it. I didn't get up to go to communion at his service, and I got the evil eye, for example.

I hate when relatives get upset when one chooses not to engage in cannibalism for the sake of appeasing the demonic overlords that run the false church of Roman Catholicism...

what if they put some dulce the leche on the host?

would you have eaten it then? i would...? obleas rule?

SuchFriendsAreDangerous · 05.07.2015, 10:17 AM

Rob, you're right to be scared of the Host, vampires and heathens are at risk of eternal fires for not "discerning the Blood and Body of Our Lord" and indeed the priests are there to protect the people from the Chalice, it can be dangerous when ones partake unworthily. As Apostle Paul mentions, "For this reason many of you are sick, and some have even died!"

My dad was an Episcopal priest until his passing in 1991, I was an acolyte for 10 years. I know the care taken with the hosts and wine.

gmku · 05.07.2015, 10:43 AM

Ha ha. My wife, who was not raised Catholic, had a lot to say about her first real Catholic mass experience, my dad's funeral service. "This talk of drinking blood and eating flesh. You don't think that's a bit... weird." Yes, my dear, yes, I do.

SuchFriendsAreDangerous · 05.07.2015, 10:45 AM

It is interesting you said that. I have often thought that people misinterpret the Aztecs and Mayas because of imagery of human sacrifice. I mean, think about this, if the Catholic/Orthodox Church somehow disappeared and was abandoned, and then a few hundred years from now people randomly found some ruins of Catholic Churches and saw the altar, saw the icons, managed to read elements of the Mass, would they not conclude that Christians were cannibals who ritually sacrificed human beings??

In other words, perhaps the Aztecs were symbolic..

gmku · 05.07.2015, 10:48 AM

You're telling me they're not?!

Umm.. no?

schizophrenicroom · 05.07.2015, 01:17 PM

so i read a little on amharic, and yeah, i couldn't handle that for more than a minute

SuchFriendsAreDangerous · 05.07.2015, 01:26 PM

backwards syntax.. No clear expression or word for "no".. strict rules for gender, politeness, AND affection.. as ridiculously colorful and figurative as anything in English.. 256 character alphabet.. several "sounds" that are almost identical but have completely different and confusing meanings..

Yeah, its a lot of fun

!@#$%! · 05.07.2015, 01:30 PM

how come nobody is interested in obleas... prolly cuz nobody knows them

schizophrenicroom · 05.07.2015, 01:58 PM

that's what they're called?! i MISS THESE! i like the raspberry ones but i'd rather have dulce de leche- when i lived in a particularly run down area of little havana (jesus christ, i lived everywhere in that neighborhood) there was this grimy little convenience store that i'm pretty sure was really drug front of sorts because i always saw the same few people in there, but goddamn i loved these things. five to a pack for a dollar, no name on them or anything. i miss the fried dough bits with sugar on top too, whatever those are.

did i mention this dude who lived in miami now lives here and keeps inviting me for starbucks? a) i told him literally "my dad is here all weekend so i'll be hanging with my dad" and he says "well i'm sure we can get lunch in between!" and b)he tried to use his ford taurus as some sort of point to try and seduce me? -sorry for the uptalk but there's no real way to word it via typing that conveys my amazement- the guy literally says "i have a nice ford taurus i can pick you up in"
