I get the religion bashing (I am a lapsed Catholic myself), but this is stupid.

I thought that transubstantiation was still technically the official belief. I was raised Catholic too and basically taught it was a symbol in my family and circles, but I think if you go to the actual belief as put forth by the church they still consider it more than just a symbol.
I will admit, I could be wrong on this. But if it isn't Catholics, some denominations of Christians definitely do.
