@stupidcatholicslut i have no idea what is going on but i am in favor of it
@trans_caracal @anathema @lizzie @shroomie thats only true if youre catholic tho (maybe orthodox aswell ? )
@fiore @trans_caracal @anathema @shroomie i think it is also the case for lutherans
@trans_caracal @anathema @lizzie @shroomie yea but they dont have the dogma of transsubstantiation (or whatever it is in english ) meaning that the “eating a dudes flesh” is regarded as a bit more than a symbol , while for catholics its Actual Human Flesh of the lord
@trans_caracal @anathema @fiore @shroomie reformed christians and baptists have differing views to eachother but neither consider it to actually be the body of christ
@fiore @trans_caracal @anathema @shroomie i mean orthodox christians and lutherans do also think it is really the body of christ, they just dont like the particular way transubstantiation describes it.
anglicans generically say “real presence of christ in the eucharist” in a way that is deliberately ambiguous and makes room for lower views. my priest has said “we dont use [transubstantiation] in the episcopal church, but it is what i believe happens”
@lizzie @anathema @shroomie @trans_caracal anglicans arent valid they only do it for the clout /j
@lizzie @anathema @shroomie @trans_caracal youre BRI*ISH ??????????? and you NEVER TOLD ME ??
@fiore @anathema @shroomie @trans_caracal fun fact stan from american dad is also anglican/episcopalian too
@lizzie @anathema @shroomie @trans_caracal im genuinely baffled i couldve sworn you were americsn
@ellie @anathema @lizzie @shroomie @trans_caracal canceled . im not gonna stand there while millions of wormheads are subjected to this (having a british janny )
@fiore @anathema @shroomie @trans_caracal NO!!! im not british!
@lizzie @anathema @shroomie @trans_caracal god dammit you scared the shit out of me i already have too many british mutuals i couldnt take fonding out you were another one
@fiore @anathema @shroomie @trans_caracal i am from phoenix arizona. my mom just bought dates someone grew in their backyard
@fiore @anathema @shroomie @trans_caracal i thought you were joking about calling me british
@lizzie @anathema @shroomie @trans_caracal no i assumed anglican => british
@fiore @anathema @shroomie @trans_caracal americans speak english bc we were a british colony. the episcopal church has been a major part of the american religious landscape the whole time and most of our founding fathers were anglicans.
fun fact our line of bishops actually comes from scotland bc english bishop ordination required swearing allegiance to the king and we weren’t too big on that post-revolution
@lizzie @anathema @shroomie @trans_caracal oh wow thats actually a fun piece of history
@fiore @anathema @shroomie @trans_caracal other fun fact: our first bishop wore the hat wrong bc he didnt lnow how he was supposed to and it is cold in connecticut
@krankheit @anathema @fiore @shroomie @trans_caracal yeahh that. it is an odd wording but i kind of like it tbh. functionally it amounts to consubstantiation
@krankheit @anathema @fiore @shroomie @trans_caracal they would get mad yes, since their view retains that the bread and body are separate things. it is similar though bc both are present
@krankheit @anathema @fiore @shroomie @trans_caracal weird specifics aside, they do tend to agree that “this us my body” and “this is my blood” are rather literal in my experience
