It's not a wafer at that point. The man at the front says the special magic words and it literally turns into the flesh of Jesus. Is that before or after he ruins the wine by turning into the blood of Christ? So does that mean that Catholics are Cannibal Vampires?!

No.
It is the miracle of transubstantiation. The biscuit (or bread if you don't know about biscuits) and wine retain the physical properties they have, but spiritually become the body and blood of Christ.
It's pretty straightforward.
There haven't been that many actual wars fought over the issue.

Catholicism for beginners.You don't get confessional wafers. Confession is where you tell the priest everything you have done wrong and he forgives you/ touches you up. The biscuit wafer* is part of mass This is my biscuit eat this in memory of me**. * may not be a biscuit. Jesus doesn't seem to have known about Waitrose. ** wording may be slightly different. I don't know. It is a long time since I went to mass. Last time I went to a funeral they had changed all the words slightly. It was confusing. It's not a wafer at that point. The man at the front says the special magic words and it literally turns into the flesh of Jesus. It still looks and tastes like a wafer usually though. You need to get back up to speed with transubstantiation. You can't call yourself a Catholic atheist unless you have a strong idea of what you do not believe. Also we substituted a caramel digestive for the bread for reasons.

Tell that to the Cathars... before 1215 god hadn't made it a miracle; the Fourth Lateran Council decided to set god right on that so that the Pope could order the murder of thousands of Cathars. Truly a christian act.

Also we substituted a caramel digestive for the bread for reasons. My description is reasonably accurate. Also, my atheism doesn't matter; I may not believe in God, but he still believes in me.

Cathars are all dead, innit. Not much point in talking to them. I think getting massacred in Beziers was a tactical error.
A bit like the inhabitants of what is now called Tasmania not realising Abel Tasman didn't have their best interests at heart.

I just kicked a MASSIVE spoder IN THE FACE. In my defence, I was in 'the courtyard' having a crafty fag, when I noticed said arachnid approaching my footwear. I tried to warn it off with a casual stamp of the foot, but it did not yield. So I kicked it IN THE FACE. At this point I realised that I was wearing slippers and in pure comedy gold, my kicking slipper flew off into "Old Boy's" pile of scrap metal about 20ft away. In my attempts to retrieve the slipper (hopping on one foot - it was raining) I managed to rip the heel off. "You managed to get wedged in that pile of crap, why won't you come out!" *ripping sound* Oh..
I went full Basil Fawlty.

I now imagine the spoder telling its mates an amusing story how it went for a bloke's slipper and managed to rip it off in spectacular fashion.

Truly a christian act. With this you sent me down a rabbit hole earlier, Chumbles , as I was trying to figure out who the author of the account of the massacre at Béziers was that we read in Latin class in school. It must have been an excerpt from the Historia Albigensis of Peter of Vaux-de-Cernay, but I distinctly remember the infamous "Caedite eos. Novit enim Dominus qui sunt eius" (the origin of " kill them all, let God sort them out") quote which apparently comes from a different source. I think it must have been included in some kind of annotation. Anyway, it was a good read. 4 stars, would recommend.

Chiellini, Illuminati, Immobile.
Superb spine of the Italian 2014 Euros team.
1980 ITV commentary - "im-mobile"
2014 ITV commentary - "eeeh-mow-beee-lay"
It's probably neither.

Obviously Illuminati wasn't playing central midfield, I made that up.
That was Pirlo, sweet sexy, handsome, Pirlo.
Like a young Tuffers.

Barolo and Montepulciano as full backs, Soave as sweeper, with the noble Frascati towering in goal... Asti on the wing (a lightweight but bubbly personality), the Chianti brothers as multirole midfielders *sigh*... the dream team

Either that, or it's having a very long nap outside, on it's back, in the rain. [EDIT] I've just had a close(ish) look and the spoder appears to have *ahem* burst.
