STERCORIANISM AND TRANSUBSTANTIATION
Have you ever heard of the issue of "Stercorianism?" As related to transubstantiation it was as big an issue as cannibalism. What is Stercorianism? The root of the word is Stercus which, when translated into English, means dung. How does this fit into the issue of transubstantiation? Eating of the elements raises the issue of what happens to them once they are consumed. Are they excreted and become part of the dung heap?
Paschasius, one of the supposed Roman Catholic Church intellectuals, maintained "that bread and wine in the sacrament are not under the same laws with our other food, as they pass into our flesh and substance without any evacuation" (History of Romanism, Dowley, p. 195).
When we think about it, the number of times one might take mass in their lifetime, we have to wonder how many Christs are part of their body. To answer this question, some of the Church fathers said that the elements were annihilated. Woops! Did not the priest create God, the creator, in the elements? Annihilated? That means that God has been destroyed. It has to! If the wafer is the God/Man, Christ, and it is annihilated, and God has been destroyed. This is absolute nonsense, but then the whole issue of transubstantiation is nonsense.
I think it is clear that the wafer is digested and excreted the same way any other food is. If the elements were really Christ, i.e. Body, blood, soul, and divinity (skin, hair, blood, bones, guts, and gore), then this would transform our Lord Jesus Christ, our sacrifice without spot or wrinkle, into filth. According to transubstantiation, Jesus ultimately becomes dung!
This is abhorrent, repugnant, retching, an absolute lie. Fortunately it is also make believe and has nothing to do with true biblical Christianity. This is just another proof of the Roman Catholic Church's paganism.
