You operate under the assumption that Jesus actually existed. That's not at all certain. Given the controversy surrounding all the texts from that time period, it's a 50-50 proposition, at best, that there ever was a Christ. I find it hard to believe a man could be a God, or even that a human-like God could exist. One cannot be disrespectful of what never existed.
Of course I "operate under the assumption that Jesus actually existed". Know what else? I don't think Muhammed was a prophet...much less THE Prophet. I don't think that the Hindu deities exist, much less that one manifested in the form of a cow. I don't believe in Odin or Thor or Neptune or Aphrodite. I don't believe in Baal or Zoroaster or Xenu. But I'm not a jerk about it.



Place me like a seal over your heart, like a seal on your arm; for love is as strong as death, its jealousy unyielding as the grave. It burns like blazing fire, like a mighty flame. -- Song 8:6

I think debating the merits of the Eucharist is a perfectly valid discussion. This, however, is simply disrespectful. If you'd like to have an intelligent discussion concerning the psychology behind beliefs or the disregarding of common sense in favor of dogma, please do. I can't let this thread continue, however.
