Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Depends how literally you take it. Ironically, generally the people who take Genesis the most literally take Jesus saying "this is my body" and "this is my blood" the least literally
Imagine believing the earth is 6000 years old but that transubstantiation is bullshit.
Its a lot easier to tell that the bread didn't magically become flesh than to tell how old the earth is tho
The implication is that GOD CREATED THE UNIVERSE
So a guy imbueing a cracker with the spiritual energy of Christ feels a lot less impressive in terms of "magic we're willing to accept"
Idk man, they both believe god created the universe. But one of them is holding a piece of bread and insisting it is in actual substance human flesh.
