Analyzing the body wouldn't prove anything. The bread before it is blessed by the priest is mere bread, once he blesses it, it becomes the body of christ. however it retains all the physical forms of bread (taste, texture, etc.) but it is still the body of christ. The blood is the same.
I've never personally experienced Disney World, either. Most of what we know about anything depends on taking somebody else's word for it.

Bummer.  I should have guessed, though.  It's like the supersonic jet streams - there's always a wacky story to be invented.
"An honest god is the noblest work of man. ... God has always resembled his creators. He hated and loved what they hated and loved and he was invariably found on the side of those in power." - Robert G. Ingersoll

I hadn't heard about it either. I suppose that atheists tend to not be as tightly packed in their communities as a common disbelief is not a strong bond between them.

Atheist community seems like less of an actual group than any religious community.  :P
If I was asked to imagine a perfect deity, I would never invent one that suffers from a multiple personality disorder. Christians get points for originality there.

The catholic church evolved to the point that they now accept contraception, I love how they change the rules to suit themselves.
Damn right.
Wasn't there some guy who got sued for kidnapping a wafer?

EDIT: Found it.

The Roman Catholic Church is insane. The Vatican then released a statement that "Sacreligion will not be tolerated".
HaHa!!

I hope you mean sacrilege. Either way, saying that something is physically the body of christ, but it's still physically bread is just stupid.
