There are two realities, Catholic and not. Protestants, and all those mired more deeply in Conventional Reality, reject the idea that Jesus had the desire or Power to ordain Catholic priests with the power to preside over the changing of bread and wine into His Actual Body and Blood.

In the Catholic Mass, the First Eucharistic Prayer tells us that “an angel takes the Host to an altar in Heaven”. Catholic Fundamentalists see that it is taken there, pasted and copied (with total,absolute perfection!), and instantaneously zapped back to the altar. The fact that it can come to a dead stop, right there in the priests’ hands, is the most overlooked miracle of the Mass.

Then, the Body is downloaded by believers. It travels faster than light, yet stands still to be eaten. Its living power surges through the soul, spirit, mind, and body of the believer blessed to receive That Holy Food.

Catholic Fundamentalists suggest that Transubstantiation is a greater miracle than the Creation Program. In the Mass, God downloads Himself within the Chosen, rather than programming mere things for them to rearrange. The speed with which it happens tells us that God’s operates through both time and space beyond human abilities to understand intellectually or scientifically.

The speed of Transubstantiation is beyond scientific comprehension. When He said, “If you do not eat my body and drink my blood, you do not have life in you.” He is telling scientists of every age that there is a far higher speed than any Newton can comprehend. He is also telling science that God has a mastery of atomic structures that changes dead wheat into living flesh and blood billions of times a month.

It is no surprise that the other side actively tries to destroy The Church. Her most basic teaching opposes everything they believe about time, space, and the self they prefer to worship.
