Is chewing Jesus somehow worse than swallowing him whole?

Yeah, melting until you could swallow it (which is what led to occasionally getting one stuck to the roof of your mouth and trying to lick it off (no fingers! as noted above)) . In retrospect, not sure why my tongue was holy enough to touch Jesus and not my teeth, but logical consistency is not a strong point of any religion.

Not to mention other parts of your alimentary canal.

When my parents were active in the civil rights movement in our segregated town, we visited the African-Americans’ Catholic church. Among other noticeable differences, they’d taken the doughy communion wafers and fried them crisp. I think we still let them disintegrate by themselves, though.

Just a silly aside, but since I was a kid, I always wanted to tell the priest giving me communion “I’d rather have one with chocolate”. The wafers are just so bland for the flesh of the king of the world.

A few years ago at one of the foreign branches of my church in Beijing, when the Sacrament bread was passed to the congregation, one little boy picked up his piece and said, quite loudly, “Where’s the jam?” We all managed to not laugh out loud, but it was obvious from people’s faces that they really enjoyed his question.

Seems like they should really use those famous “melts-in-your-mouth” M&Ms.

(ETA: Provides a new interpretation for the common phrase “Sweet Jesus!”)

Maybe ask for two, and with some snuck (sneaked?) in supplies, make it a s’more.

[Either is acceptable](https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/sneak#usage-1), and S’mores are even more acceptable!

What else is the eternal flame for if not to cook s’mores?

Over a month and 50 posts since then, and not a single “coveting your neighbor’s ass” joke. I am so disappointed in you all.

My younger sister was hooked on ghost shows on TV. I’ve mocked her enough about it that she can see the silliness now and has fun mocking them along with me, but _every_ single Real Life Ghost Encounter in those shows starts with someone saying “I never _used_ to believe in ghosts.”

Much like every letter to Penthouse Forum starts with “I never thought it would happen to me, but…”

(Is that even still a thing? Never mind - don’t care.)
