Here’s news that is not really a shocker: Only 26% of Catholics understand and believe in the transubstantiation. This is the equivalent of claiming that only 26% of United States citizens believe that there are three branches of government.
It’s pretty amazing to see such rampant ignorance, especially in the a context that is supposedly a matter of eternal life versus eternal damnation.
BTW, those who truly believe in the transubstantiation should not take Communion on Good Friday, because it is the same thing as eating meat.
