The problem with transsubstination is that they are bringing Jesus into sacrifice with every eucharist served. When Jesus died, he said, "it is finished", thus, no more need for sacrifices.

And no more sacrifices are made. The bread and wine become the body and blood of Christ.

No blood of gentile children necessary.

Yes, however, in transubstanation, you are actually "sacrificing" Jesus over and over. Also, there's the cannibalism thing going on.

The practice of communion is also done by the Orthodox and most major Protestant denominations.

You honestly believe you have a better understanding of what is proper for Christianity than either the Apostolic fathers and Millenia of Catholic, Orthodox and Protestant theologians?

Most protestants don't believe that they are ingesting ACTUAL flesh and blood... Christianity has no room for cannibalism. It is for every individual to decide what is right, you are responsible for YOU at the end of it all. I do not think I have a better understanding for others, only for me. It is from study of the HOLY Bible, and other texts, including the catholic canon, and thinking that I come to my conclusions, not on what "millennia of dogma" have found for themselves. Your relationship to God is between you and God, and he will guide you into great understanding through the Holy Spirit.
