What 70% of Catholics Don’t Believe. Are You One?
Did you know that surveys show that 70% of Catholics no longer believe in the Real Presence of Christ in the Holy Eucharist? Well, I don’t believe that. I believe they were never taught about the Real Presence.
When asked to explain what the Real Presence is, nearly nine out of ten Catholics can’t even come close to an explanation. So since they can’t explain what It is, naturally they don’t believe in It. And this lack of belief leads to every form of disrespect for the Eucharist, causing everyday Catholics to commit acts of abuse against It without even realizing it.
The Eucharist is the very core of our Catholic faith. In fact, as a convert I came to realize that Christianity makes absolutely no sense without the Eucharist. So in this episode we’re going to look at what the Real Presence really is.
The Cantankerous Catholic Social Media GroupJoin our group where subscribers of The Cantankerous Catholic can meet to discuss the issues talked about in episodes, get opinions from other like minded people, or simply discuss anything effecting Catholics.
Don’t like or trust Facebook? No problem!
Joe Sixpack—The Every Catholic Guy doesn’t trust Facebook either. There have been too many instances of censorship on Facebook. If you promote abortion, LGBT issues, or anything anti-patriotic, you’re pretty much guaranteed to be unmolested by Facebook. But if you promote life, decency or morality, Facebook is subject to censor your posts, take down your page, or otherwise use some underhanded method to censor you.
Mumblit.comWe’ve found an alternative to Facebook. It’s a new social media site called Mumblit.com. This is the one social media that doesn’t censor you for upholding Catholic values and morals. You’re completely free to discuss and promote anything you want, just as long as it isn’t immoral, indecent, or anti-American. Mumblit.com has never molested us in any way, and they guarantee they won’t. The site otherwise works identically to Facebook. That is the reason Joe Sixpack—The Every Catholic Guy chose to host The Cantankerous Catholic Social Media Group there. We have the added benefit and protection of being a private group. So join the group now to meet other like minded Catholics.
Not a Catholic? We’d still love to have you join us. You’ll find that we’re a very welcoming people. (Matthew [25:35])
