The person who wrote this needs our prayers.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cow of Shame Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 (edited) Actually, this bit struck me as quite funny: "Where in the world did this morbid practice begin, I wondered. I reread the Bible for clues. Could that explain the mystery of the empty tomb of Jesus (Luke 24:3)? Did the disciples [i]eat[/i] him?" hehehe A title of a pic reads: "Here we have a community of Christians lining up to eat and swallow the uncooked flesh of Jesus " ....would he feel better if he thought it was cooked or something? I did like his "Soylent Green Biscuit Co" link at the bottom. I have to admit, by the end, the article had a spoof-ish quality to it. The author wasn't really taking himself seriously.

Birgitta Noel Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 My favorite was the caption under the elderly woman receiving the Eucharist stating that the practice continues into old age, or something like that. This man clearly needs many prayers, though he doesn't want them (he says this on his web site's FAQs, likening them to blowing smoke in the face of a non-smoker). May God have mercy on his soul.

Cow of Shame Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 The whole site is for kooks. I found an article on "Time Travel". Apparently, suspended animation is equivalent to time travel in the author's eyes. hehe In fact, he gives this as proof: [img]http://www.nobeliefs.com/death%26timetravel/Control%20Panels.gif[/img] Before the time jump, the instrument panel appears like the one on the left. Note the "stop time" clock programmed one year ahead of the "present time" clock. The count down timer got set for 10 seconds. After pressing the "GO" button, the timer counts down from ten to zero and, instantly, the instrument appears like the one on the right. You'll notice the only difference as the "present time" clock suddenly agreeing with the "stop time" clock and the red LED glowing, showing that the time-jump occurred. The time traveler will feel no sensation whatsoever. From his perspective, he jumped one year ahead and traveled one orbit around the sun, instantly. How utterly amazing!!

Guest Rick777 Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 This was awful to read! Man I could only read a few paragraphs. I'm not sure whether this guy is being sarcastic about the Eucharist or really means this............... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matty_boy Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 Isn't that actually the heresy of Paschaseus (sp?), that the Eucharist is the REAL presence (accidents of flesh and bone with BBSD) rather than TRUE presence (accidents of bread and wine but BBSD).

Didacus Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 at first I thought it was just a trolling's rant. But afterwards, iwth a bit of reflection, I think it is simple 'comical' sarcasm trying to portray the ridiculous notion that receiving 'communion is canibalism'.

1337 k4th0l1x0r Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 This just looks like poorly written satire. There are plenty of people out there who do not get that just because something is satirical doesn't mean it is humorous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[quote]In carrying out his plan he made the mistake of emphasizing the identity of the Eucharistic Body of Christ with His natural (historical) Body in such exaggerated terms that the difference between the two modes of existence was not sufficiently brought out. [/quote] [url="http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/11518a.htm"]http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/11518a.htm[/url] It fills in a gap I had in some research. You are correct. He however was never accused of heresy and made his thoughts more clear on the matter it seems. Edited January 17, 2006 by thessalonian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
