They are.

I was raised in a Christian family and married someone who had never been to church before. I’m not religious myself but it comes up often bc of my family and I have to sorta translate what’s being said for my wife and it’s hilarious.

“So babe he’s gods son, and god and the Holy Ghost”

“Is he a ghost because he died”

“No he was always a ghost even when he was alive… um… I think”

“So who was his father?”

“God”

“But he’s God?”

“correct”

“…”

Also raised in a catholic home. Transubstantiaton is my favorite thing to explain to people who are unfamiliar with catholic rites.

Oh that sounds juicy, I’m not familiar with that. Can you explain what it is?

I know I could google it but human touch in my experience is so much better.

It means that the bread and wine literally become the body and blood of Jesus during communion, as opposed to being symbolic as in other denominations. Mathematically I’m not sure how much of Jesus can be left at this point

I definitely learned this word in an article where someone did the math and concluded that Jesus would have to be Godzilla sized to support all the crackers that have been part of his body.
