A youth minister at the Parish were my godfather (The Parish Priest) was asking me, what I thought of and an explanation and evidence against "Eucharistic miracles" and "The Incorrupt Bodies of the Saints".

Though at the time, I didn't even know of such things.

And though I still don't see it as evidence, I was curious about what you all thought of the so called "Eucharistic miracles" and "The Incorrupt Bodies of the Saints"?

  1. preservatives.


  2. I personally don't believe it however, if it did happen, I would see no glory given to the True God so I would not believe that it was a miracle from Him.

  3. You need to ask him to prove those "miracles".  It's all doctrine with nothing more than myth behind it.

  4. It's simply some sort of thixotropic (or non-newtonian) fluid.

  5. 1. Impossible hoax.

    2. Preservatives, either by storing the body in inert gas or by fixing it with chemicals.

  6. They've found many bodies preserved that were not religious at all.  It is a chemical their body produces that keeps it from breaking down.  You can find the explanation at many places on the web.

    "Incorrupt Bodies" are a myth, it happens pretty often to just plain people.

  7. "A Eucharistic miracle is an alleged miracle when, during consecration during the Catholic or Orthodox Mass, the bread and wine visibly become the body and blood of Jesus Christ."

    Yet more proof that they are cannibals.

  8. What I think about the Eucharistic miracles is that if wine and bread actually became blood and the body of christ they would have let us see it like the bodies of the saints. But since they won't let us see it, how are we supposed to believe them? And about the bodies of the saints just because they were real people doesn't mean that there is a God.  

  9. There is no proof of the Eucharistic miracles and Those "Incorrupt Bodies" are coated in wax.

  10. saints means anyone who is born again..

  11. The Eucharist stuff sounds orders of magnitude more hokey and crazy than the rest of the stuff in Catholicism.

  12. Even as a former Catholic, I had no idea that I was actually supposed to believe that the little bread circles had transformed into real flesh!  That is somewhat disturbing and kind of hilarious.  

    Priest:  Hey guys, check it out its a miracle...I just turned this bread into Jesus's flesh!

    Guy:  Um...dude...that still looks like bread"

    Priest:  Uh...yeah....DUH!!! That's the miracle!  I made it into flesh that LOOKS and TASTES like bread so that it wouldn't be gross!"

    Guy:  Oh...I have GOT to eat me some Jesus!  Yummy yummy flesh!

    Priest: That's what I'm sayin!  Eat up, son!
