Originally posted by robrecht View PostLots of people fail to understand the depth of Catholic theology, or disagree about theology within the Catholic church, and Eucharistic and sacramental theologies can be effectively critiqued, but not by those who have no interest in understanding in even trying to understand what they criticize. At least Spartacus has begun to study Catholic theology.
Flannery O'Connor famously said, regarding the Eucharist, "if it's just a symbol, the Hell with it."
The Real Presence is a very important part of many Catholics' spiritual lives.
Have I taken any college-level courses specifically on sacramental theology? No, but I dare say that more than half a decade of experience in apologetics and attending conferences on Catholic theology and earning a bachelor's degree in the field, I qualify at least as an amateur theologian. I'm not sure whether to take your phrase, "has begun to study" as charming or condescending.Don't call it a comeback. It's a riposte.

Did I get it right this time?
