Is the body of Christ gluten free? Asking for a friend. - eviltoast

Could Jesus make a Celiac so allergic he couldn’t receive Him?

    You drink his blood and eat his body… Vampirism and cannibalism. Way to go catholics.

    (thanks Eddie)

        There’s an Abbot and Costello skit in there somewhere. “You’re on a new diet?” “No I said deit.”

        It’s only cannibalism if you are also a god. Otherwise its deitism?

        Ah, but the Athanasian creed clearly teaches the doctrine of hypostatic union, that Jesus is fully god but also fully man.

        Since he is fully man, eating his body would indeed be cannibalism. Don’t take away the most metal part of Christianity.
