Reply to comment by HarEmiya in I dated a hindu girl who would eat chicken or goat but not beef. She said it was a sacred animal. by KarmicComic12334

By catholic doctrine? Well, by my doctrine, it's utter bollocks. You're saying that wafers magically turn into holy human meat once eaten. Yeah, nah.

Sorry not just doctrine, it is catholic dogma. Established as doctrine by the Fourth Council of the Lateran in 1215, and in 1551 the Council of Trent declared it dogma. It is essential to the faith, but you don't have to be a catholic.

I'm not sure why you're telling me any of this? I'm not in the slightest bit interested.
