My christian daughter and I went for breakfast and she asked why a few ppl had markings on their foreheads and I told her it was ash wednesday and a Catholic thing.
Then I said the catholics were one of the crazier religions in that they believe those crackers are the actual body of christ. She interrupted me with "No, it's not" I told her that that is what they believe and she had this skeptical look on her face. She probably thinks I'm bullshitting her.
I have hopes for her because I know she will google it.

They don't believe they are the actual corpse, but rather believe it to be a magical wafer that will allow you live for eternity within the confines of sky pixie land.

Didn't know that but then I don't know a lot about religion outside of the whatever bat shit religion my mother's second husband practiced.
