I’m at school in the commons, and I’m reading the paper – an actual newspaper – that someone left behind. It seems the Catholic Diocese of Dallas has suggested to its parishioners that they should stay home from mass if they feel sick – good advice, of course. But then it goes on:
Really? I mean, sure that sounds like good advice, but I thought that the whole point of communion was that transubstantiation magically miraculously changed the wine into the actual blood of Christ. Surely such a miracle could neutralize a few Swine Flu viruses, could it not?
As a lapsed Catholic, I go the other direction: what, they don’t worry about this all the fuckin’ time?.
I am so tired of this bullshit. Besides, when I used to go to church, I’m pretty sure they wiped the rim of the cup between each person anyway.
They did this at the beginning of the whole Aids thing too. Which was actually even more ridiculous if you think about it.
Surely such a miracle could neutralize a few Swine Flu viruses, could it not?
The viruses aren’t Catholic, duh!
Nah, Jesus was totally human & totally divine. The human part can still get swine flu. *giggle*
And, apparently, other illnesses.
