Something that bothered me, even when I was within the church, was this entire concept. Like, you're telling me cannibalism is fine, so long as it's the son of God?

Cause either it's cannibalism as the flesh of the man, or it's eating your deity as the embodiment of God.

... Do you think eating the Brains of Christ would give you holy prion disease? Is Speaking in Tongues just Gods Kuru?

Cause either it’s cannibalism as the flesh of the man, or it’s eating your deity as the embodiment of God.
