Huh. I thought Jesus left them outside the door overnight.
That's just silly.
Jesus can't bake. In fact, he sucks at it.
The Holy Spirit, I'm told, makes some kickass hash-brownies, though.
You got all kinds of learnin' and you made me look the fool without tryin', and yet here I am with a gun to your head. That's 'cause I got people with me. People who trust each other, who do for each other, and ain't always lookin' for the advantage.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
While you are clearly expected to ingest the wafer in the church, there is no stated rule that you must.
I think that there is, but I don't remember. Not *rule,* rule, like No shoes, no soul, no service. But there is a rule (doctrine?) that non-Catholics cannot take Communion. And I don't bring that up as proof that one must consume the eucharist in the church; I only point it out to offer an example of a "rule" regarding Catholic Mass.
And I'm pretty sure that another rule is, If You Go Up To Take Communion, You Consume It Right Away.

EXCUSE ME? Where were they when the Bratz dolls came out? Or even regular Barbie? I had to buy one for a Santa thing last year, and I could only find ONE barbie that didn't look like a 'ho.

Theft is theft.
Sometimes it's a misdemeanor, and sometimes it's a felony. I can't find an example of a crime that allows the "hate crime" enhancement that's not a felony.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
That's just silly.
Jesus can't bake. In fact, he sucks at it.
Well, He does always forget the baking soda.

So someone who tracks someone for a week or two and plans a way to kill them is the same as someone who, in the course of an argument, picks up a butcher knife?
Yes.

Further, how was the church harmed by this?
Well, they do pay for the things.
True, but it's less than a penny per wafer.

The church gave the wafer to the kid, he didn't sneak into the vestry and take it.
And the wafer was going to leave the church either way. It was just a question of whether it was inside of the kid or outside.

oh, I know. It's just that it's hard to demonstrate that the church was harmed when the item that was allegedly taken was worth less than a penny.
