Because it changes after you eat it, so you didn’t technically eat human flesh. You just digested it.
Sounds legit…except where do the priests get plutonium? Does the Vatican have a hidden nuclear reactor designed by Michelangelo in the early 16th Century? It would explain a lot if they did.

I’d like to be a fly on the wall when Usha confronts him over that blonde hussy.
As I posted in another thread, I think that Vance’s political goose is cooked if he divorces Usha and then marries the grieving widow Kirk, even if he waits an appropriate amount of time. (not sure what that time might be in MAGA land.)
But, as has been suggested, if she leaves him, then it would be perfectly acceptable for him to woo Miss Erika. In fact, it would almost be like it was ordained.
Listen, I won’t advance this sidebar any further, and I’ve already said too much. Let’s just say that you be surprised—very surprised—at the secrets housed in the Vatican. Makes The Da Vinci Code look like Green Eggs and Ham.
Moderating:
After discussion in the mod loop, we’ve decided this is not a thread that is appropriate for P&E. The well appears to be poisoned from the outset with comments such as these in the OP:
This wanders straight into conspiracy theory provocation and is not good faith debate.
Accordingly, this thread is closed. @SenorBeef, you can ask to have the thread moved to the Pit if you wish. Simply contact a P&E moderator.
At the request of the OP, this is reopened in the Pit.
While transubstantiation is certainly weird, I’m not sure that symbolically cannibalism your savior (as other Christian denominations do) is really any better.
(I was joking about this with a voice student of mine who’s an aspiring Jesuit. His response was “our religion is badass! WE EAT GOD.” Honestly couldn’t argue with that.)
“Mr. Vance, as someone seeking the nomination for President, Republican voters would like to know more about your character. For example, have you ever cheated on your wife?”
“I’m sorry, I didn’t know it was still a requirement.”
iMO this is Vance, who knows exactly (or has a better idea than the general public) how sick Trump is, trying to carve out a Maga following for himself. He’s thinking about the 2028 election, a year or two after Trump’s demise, he thinks becoming Kirk’s successor, by marriage, will help him.
A good chunk of my social media (and IRL) friends think this is a Hamlet thing, and he isn’t just taking advantage of Kirk’s demise but engineered it. That seems very unlikely to me (not that they wouldn’t do such a thing, but pulling off a perfectly executed conspiracy leaving a Patsy to take the fall would require a level of skill and discipline completely absent from anyone in this administration)
I have a feeling that Trump has been impotent for a very long time, assuming one could even find his equipment under those 230lb of skin, etc.
(I had actually thought about starting a thread about this subject, specifically the speculation about the state of the Vances’ marriage, but didn’t want to be pitted myself, like I have been with other threads, so I waited for someone else to do it first. MHO: It’s none of my business, and wouldn’t be if I knew them personally. I do feel bad for the kids if any of this is true.)
Whaddaya mean? They love plenty of non-Christians. Like Trump, or Charlie Kirk.
230lbs? Only if he was standing on Mars, whose gravity is about 38% of Earth’s.
She’s white, a former model (and still, arguably, very attractive), Christian (she was baptized Roman Catholic), and from a well-to-do family in her native Yugoslavia/Slovenia. In other words, the “right kind” of foreigner. And, besides, because they worship Trump, they also worship his family.
Don’t forget trans people, even when they have impeccable MAGA views.
Transgender Trump supporter Blaire White was viciously smacked down by fellow conservative in a panel discussion who told her to “grow out your mustache and tell people not to live like you.”
White rose to fame on YouTube with her videos denouncing feminism, Black Lives Matter, and even LGBTQ equality, making her one of the best-known conservative trans people in the U.S.
I predict this. Nobody is going to give a flying fuck about that couch fucker.
Maybe it just sags like a heavy load.
Yeah, in another thread I predicted that Charlie Kirk would not be missed, that he’d be replaced and forgotten in a month because of the grifters clambering to take his spot, but this exceeds my most cynical expectations.
