Oh, right, it makes perfect sense that the cracker would turn into the body and blood of Christ after an archaic blessing. That makes perfect sense, my bad.

You must have never heard of transubstantiation, which is the moment during the liturgy in which the host (you referred to it as a “cracker”) is transformed into the body and blood of Jesus. For this reason, you won’t find DNA in the ingredients list. You also claim that the church hates gays. You must have never taken the time to read the Catechism of the Catholic Church, which clearly states that we should welcome gays and encourage friendship. The church acknowledges their struggle, but encourages chastity, which seems like a crazy concept to this oversexed society. As those trying their best to follow every rule, they, my friend, have found true freedom in Christ. God bless.
