Bishops Swap Wafer Stories at Synod

The Synod of Bishops met in Rome last week. One topic getting much attention was the issue of how Catholics receive their wafers – either in the hand or on the tongue. This was reported in the Oct 6 'Catholic News Service' article titled, "Communion in Hand Versus on Tongue Gets Attention at Synod."

The absurd doctrine that Jesus turns Himself into wafers and then people eat Him can lead to some funny circumstances, as seen from last week's Synod.

Cardinal Janis Pujats from Latvia voiced the opinion that Catholics should receive the wafer in the mouth – while kneeling. Why? To quote from the article:

"When communicants stand...he feels like a dentist looking into their mouths."

Comment – Maybe Catholic priests should carry some floss during Mass!

Cardinal Francis Arinze of Nigeria also had a wafer story:

"He related a story about one person who went up and received Communion and then took it home and kept the host in his scrapbook."

Comment – So, the "god" Catholics worship can end up pasted in someone's scrapbook.

The REAL Jesus of the bible does NOT turn Himself into wafers, nor does He reside in scrapbooks. Pray that God gives many Catholics the grace to reject Roman wafer-worship, forsake Rome forever, and receive the real Jesus Christ by FAITH ALONE – no pope, Roman priest, or wafers needed!
