761: Our Demands

[Grapist]

Sooo, let me get this straight. The priest blesses the wine and it becomes the blood of Christ, if this is the case then if the priests drank the leftover blood of Christ they shouldn't get drunk. It's not wine anymore, right? It's been transformed into blood. So Keith's dad's comment about "drunk priests" proves that there is no transformation that takes place.

Catholics, practicing idolatry for 2000 years.

I've been a reverend for about 6 years (same deal as Brother Love), I'd be happy to bless anything you want blessed but the catholics won't have a problem with it because I'm not Catholic. As far as I'm aware in order for it to be the body of Christ according to Catholics it would have to be done by a Catholic priest.

Just trying to make sure you piss off the people you want to piss off.

God damn you all *winky face*

Holy shit! "He paid so promptly I would let him eff my a-pipe anytime." One of the funniest things I've EVER heard.

Catholic chick checking in to fact* check:

- the wine maintains its natural winely properties as well as becoming the Blood of Christ so you can get drunk on Jesus.

- alcoholic priests are allowed to use a wine product known as mustum. It is minimally fermented and you would have to drink a gallon to get a tiny buzz.

- alcoholic priests don't generally become alcoholics by partying but by sitting home alone at night and drinking alone

- the special sink (piscina) doesn't drain into the waste water system but directly into the soil. Since it's OK to bury a human body in the earth, it's OK to dispose of the Body and Blood of Christ in the earth.

- Brother Love can go ahead and bless anything you want but it won't be Catholic Approved Eucharist TM unless a Catholic priest does it

- eBay won't sell any religious artifact or blessed object if they know it to be such

*facts as promulgated by the Roman Catholic Church. I know y'all will disagree. Your mileage may vary.

I'm not sure if in the Roman Catholic Church you can use the piscina to dispose of any consecrated sacraments. I was always told you couldn't.

"In accordance with what is laid down by the canons, “one who throws away the consecrated species or takes them away or keeps them for a sacrilegious purpose, incurs a latae sententiae excommunication "

and
"whatever may remain of the Blood of Christ must be entirely and immediately consumed by the Priest or by another minister, according to the norms, while the consecrated hosts that are left are to be consumed by the Priest at the altar or carried to the place for the reservation of the Eucharist"

and
"It should also be borne in mind that removing or retaining the consecrated species for a sacrilegious purpose or casting them away are graviora delicta, the absolution of which is reserved to the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith"



Those quotes are all from:

I don't see an exception to any of those rules, and was always told by the priest we couldn't dispose of hosts. But then again, one of the priests used grape juice instead of wine.

You can't dispose of the elements, but when the priest or deacon rinses the dishes after mass, the water from that washing up goes down the piscina because it will be carrying very small particles of the bread and wine. Sorry for being imprecise.

Extra consecrated hosts that aren't consumed by the priest or deacon are reserved in a tabernacle for taking to the sick during the week. Extra wine is consumed prior to the end of mass.

Also, any consecrated hosts that are indeible (moldy, etc) are to be dissolved in water until you can't tell what it was and that water is then poured down the piscina.
