I understand this is not the complete story I just thought it was cool to think of

[BradahEverett]

Okay so we’re just now starting to learn about gut microbiomes right

And a gut biome shares 40% of the bacteria with the mouth according to Google.

What if by means of the Eucharist we are sharing the gut biome of Jesuses through means of apostolic succession (because he shared his cup with the apostles) and kinda grossly through backwash.

Not only do the Catholics share the same cup during which transfers the microbiome but they also consume bread which serves to feed the bacteria that they receive.

And Jesus says in John 14:17 “the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him; but you know Him, for He dwells with you and will be in you.”

‭I understand that this is a reference to the Holy Spirit but at the same time I think it’s cool to think about there being a physical reflection to what is happening on Spiritual plane through receiving the blood of Christ.

first problem is apostolic succession, it is real.
second problem is similar to the problem with homeopathy, where some element is so diluted that there is no possibility of any of that element being present, yet they claim the impossible diluted substance works!

Jesus shared the wine of the first communion with the apostles they diluted any trace of his mouth bacteria and this has been diluted with every generation since then.

That is assuming his bacteria was able to stay alive and keep reproducing in the mouths of Christians since then to today.

A third problem is that during the early middle ages in Europe the rcc withheld the wine from the laity, saying the blood was in the body so giving the wine was not necessary, also due to questions of staus the wine would be given to those who were appropriate!


As an idea of bacteria affecting moods and decisions it makes Christianity into a mechanical materialist process.
Eat or drink this it will change your view of Jesus.
Not something to be encouraged.
