Thoughts?
Random: My thread title made me think of [this song] (warning, dark sense of humor, (what I consider) minor profanity)
As for eating the actual flesh of Christ, that's only for Roman Catholics, a doctrine called transubstatiation, in which the priest has the magical power to transform the wafer into the actual body of Christ, and the wine into His actual blood. Protestant churches discarded that heresy a long time ago. Some even go so far as to use only grape juice for their communion services (their claim is that New Wine, unfermented, was the only acceptable form, as fermentation represents corruption; this would explain why unleavened bread, bread without yeast, is used in Jewish celebrations such as Passover, Yom Kippur, etc; makes sense to me).
Sometimes I think that if I said I DIDN'T like turds, some people on here would chime in and say they DID like turds.... simply because I didn't....
I could eat something like his.
And I'm 99% sure that you would as well if it didn't remind you of something that you feel so strongly about.

Except that is not at all the reason Jews eat unleavened bread. They do so cos in their mythology they had to flee Egypt PDQ and didn't have time to let their bread rise, so they eat unleavened (unrisen) bread as a reminder of the Exodus.
Facts are free and they're for everyone. Try some, you may like it.
Many christian sects consider eating the physical body of christ a yearly form of worship.
Actually, it's a Roman Catholic - and few other orthodoxes or whatever - thing and it's a weekly or possibly even daily thing they do depending upon how often they go to mass.
Oh, I read the comments and was surprisingly entertained in a positive fashion by one of the first ones I saw:
I never sausage a sacrilege in my life.
Needless to say, after that awesomeness I stopped reading the comments in order to maintain what little faith in humanity I have left.
"Well, we all know that Jesus was a descendant of
Abraham

Another amazing comment.
Eating Meat: Most christians say Fine
Eating Jesus: Some Christians say Great, others not so much
Making Dipictions of religious characters: Most Christians say Fine
Making thoes depictions out of food: Never heard anyone complain about it before.
Not seeing the problem.

Do I read it right and was my "baloney" comment read as overly negative? Because to me TA's post came out of the blue.
Eh? Which one of my posts do you feel related to your post about baloney in any way?

The sudden explosion of snark with Christian food items seems to be the one.
We also don't allow this sort of discussion.
