Why do YOU think Catholics drink the blood of Jesus.


Why do YOU think Catholics drink the real flesh and blood of Jesus even though this is NOT how life from Son of Man is transferred. Plenty of bible quotes to oppose the notion of requirement of drinking real blood for the life sustenance.


Please no more Bible quotes I've read them all. Just please what do YOU think.

John 6:53 Then Jesus said to them, Truly, truly, I say to you, Except you eat the flesh of the Son of Man, and drink His blood, you do not have life in yourselves. 54 The one partaking of My flesh and drinking of My blood has everlasting life, and I will raise him up at the last day. 55 For My flesh is truly food, and My blood is truly drink.

Of course John pops up first and I could do this with you, but NOT the topic. What do YOU think is the question and if you are not able to respond from your own stirrings, why not?

Catholics are the only ones who transfigure the wine, cause the red grape wine to actually BECOME real blood. And they believe it, why is this important, from your heart. Not what they told you, from you heart, why drink real blood.

You think it's real blood? Jesus didn't have 40 proof blood. Someone has you chasing a wild goose.

Because its a symbol for vampirism as is the religion itself which is set up to siphon energy from humans into the archon empire with jehovah as the leader. It could also be thought of as a satanic blood ritual..

The question isn't so much why do Catholics or other Christians do this...because the answer to that is obvious: Jesus told them to in the Bible.

The real question is why did Jesus do it? Look into "Melchizedek" for a possible answer.

Re: Why do YOU think Catholics drink the blood of Jesus.
The real laugh a minute about it is that the christian faith is quite obviously a blood and sacrafice cult, yet they scream and wail about satanists and heathens who do the same!

Such archaic, superstitious bullshit has no relevance or place in a modern society.
And teaching children this kind of nonsense is insanity and should be seen for what it is...child abuse!

To hell with religion :-)

Well, I am cautious to believe in my own ideas, and I acknowledge it as a mystery (and as something harmless and not at all like vampirism)...but I always interpreted it to mean that God is omnipresent, and Jesus had attained union with God, so saying "this is my flesh, this is my blood" is like saying "I am in all things"...his body is seen as being made up of the the same stuff as the dirt, the walls of your house, a cracker, a glass of grape juice. It's all creation. And his spirit is in all things, as creator.

But I really don't know.

Re: Why do YOU think Catholics drink the blood of Jesus.
Cannibalism is eating of the dead flesh of a human person. Christ is not dead, His flesh is not dead, and He is not a human person (He is a Divine Person). Further, when a cannibal eats human flesh that flesh is gone forever. Over the centuries Catholics and Orthodox have eaten millions and millions of pounds of the Eucharist, and yet Christ surely didn't weigh more than 150 pounds or so. How is this possible if the Eucharist is cannibalism?

The very charge of cannibalism, the eating of the dead flesh of a human person, denies the Incarnation, the Divinity of Christ and the Resurrection. Since we Catholics don't deny any of these things, we understand that the charge of cannibalism is nonsense.



As an aside, I got this out of a "Catholic Answers Forum", the transubstantiation which takes place during a Mass, IS said to transform the wine to the actual blood of Jesus, but since He is not dead then it is not cannibalism. Eating an alive person is OK. Somehow this does not make me feel any better. However another answer goes on to state there is a little Jesus in everything so it's all the same. So then I ask why make the "sacrament" of the Mass the focal point. The idea that actual blood of Jesus is in drank during communion is key. Why that.

I was baptized Lutheran.

Here is part of our communion song -
one of my favorite hymns.


" Draw nigh and take the Body of the Lord,
And drink the holy Blood for you outpoured.

Offered was He for greatest and for least
Himself the Victim, and Himself the Priest. "
