It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

Aren't all Christians cannibals? Don't they believe they're eating the body of Christ? Sorry I don't fully understand transubstantiation.
Only Catholic dogma still believe that it literally turns into the flesh and blood of Christ. Protestants generally acknowledge it as a symbol, not the real deal.
Gotcha thanks
This also depends on the specific sect of Protestantism though, with some believing it is merely a symbol, while others believe it is the spiritual body and blood of Christ.
Why don't they just compromise and say the bread stays bread but the wine does turn into blood, should I start my own sect
Well folks, time to add another line.
TIL the international foursquare tournament is just another christian sect not actually a competition
insofar as jesus was crucified in order to deliver humanity from sin, god gave up his own son, which is reflected in the ritual of the eucharist: jesus' blood and flesh gives sustenance to his church. i think it's a cool ritual personally, i'm not sure if other religions have the sacrifice of its own prophet as a foundational belief.
