Its called the blood and body of christ, its then eaten that is cannibalism. The mystic sacrificial rites that accompany the ceremony are ritualistic hence ritualistic cannibalism.

​

The minute variations in wording from one sect to another have no relevance outside those sects, to an outsider its just another odd pagan practice.

​

I still dont see a difference between eating people to gain valour and eating people to gain the approval of a certain god.

you were told what it meant... it symbolizes Christ's body, broken for us, and his blood, shed for us, and is done in remembrance of him... of his sacrifice

Why is it eaten?

​

Why is it called "Blood and body"?.
