	Eucharist (Catholic Church) Totally Explained
		Eucharist in the Catholic Church refers to both the celebration of the Mass, that's the Eucharistic Liturgy, and the consecrated bread and wine which according to the faith become the body and blood of Christ.
		In the teaching of the Catholic Church, the Eucharist is one of the seven sacraments, and is commonly referred to as "the Blessed Sacrament".
		Catholics typically restrict the term 'communion' to the reception of the Body and Blood of Christ by the communicants during the celebration of the Mass and to the communion of saints in which receiving the Eucharist comes fully present.

	Spero Forum - Baptist, Protestant, and Catholic Discussion - Historical Views On the Eucharist
		The Eucharist is one of the seven Catholic sacraments which assist the believer in the progression toward union with God, and is deemed the "source and summit of Christian life".
		Eucharistic union with God is a primary component in the Catholic conception of prayer life, in which one progresses first along the purgative way, e.g., confessing sins before receiving communion, a tradition dating from the earliest period of the church.
		The Eucharist is consecrated and received in the context of a ritual (known as the Mass in Western Catholic or Anglican tradition or the Divine Liturgy in Eastern tradition, which includes Eastern Rite Catholics, the Oriental Orthodox and the Eastern Orthodox).

		It is the tragedy of that theology, in the centuries since the foundation by St. Thomas, that its practitioners have not understood its correction of Aristotle for what it is: a methodological conversion from a pagan, monadic, necessitarian and nonhistorical notion of being to a free, Trinitarian, and covenantal-historical notion.
		Guzie's eucharistic theology is simply a popularization of Calvinism; his argument for that position restates the nominalist denial, required by a monist logic, of the intrinsic, free significance of historical reality; upon this denial, as has been seen, the Reformation rests.
		The Eucharist was understood by the Latin Fathers in the early middle ages to be the actual union of the Old and the New Testaments, as scripture, as revelation, as salvation history and as worship of the One God of that one history.

	Eucharist - Christianity Knowledge Base - a Wikia wiki
		In the teaching of the Roman Catholic Church, the Eucharist is one of the seven sacraments, but is also considered the "queen of the sacraments" and "the blessed sacrament", and the institution of the Eucharist is one of the Luminous Mysteries of the Rosary.
		The Eucharist is a commemoration, or, in Greek, anamnesis [9] of the Passion, Death, and Resurrection of Christ (called the Paschal Mystery), understood in the fullest sense given to it in Biblical tradition.

	Eucharist Summary
		While the eucharistic theology of the various Protestant churches varies widely, they are united in finding a theology of transubstantiation not in harmony with their interpretation of scripture.

	Seattle Catholic - Lose the Past, Lose the Present
		Humanist love for language, literature and antiquity in general was valuable in the development of what is called "positive theology", a theology dedicated to exploration of the primary historical sources of Christian life: the Scriptures, the Fathers, liturgical texts, early canonical legislation, conciliar decrees, and references to the behavior of the faithful through the ages.
		On the other hand, Catholics concerned for the presentation of a general picture of history from an orthodox viewpoint, simultaneously drawing from positive theology and yet aware of the need to operate under the guidance of systematic theology, were not given the full support that the importance of their work deserved.
		Finally, digesting the fact that the victorious historical picture has been drawn to their disadvantage, and that much of positive theology's raw data has been dragged into a systematic attack upon the Church, many Catholics have drawn the conclusion that history, its sources, and its tools must be rejected as innately suspect.

		The focus of eucharistic theology—codified by the Council of Trent in reaction to the Reformation—was mainly on the bread and wine becoming the body and blood of the Lord.

	The Year of the Eucharist - Suggestions and Proposals
		In this feast, the Eucharistic Celebration is “the zenith, being the sacrament of Easter in its fullest sense, that is the memory of the sacrifice of the cross and the presence of the risen Christ, the completion of Christian initiation, and the promise of the eternal Easter” (Letter of Easter Celebrations, 90).
		The Eucharist is the sacrament of Christ’s Paschal sacrifice.
		The Eucharist thus appears as both the source and the summit of all evangelization, since its goal is the communion of mankind with Christ and in him with the Father and the Holy Spirit” (Ecclesia de Eucharistia, 22).

	Reference.com/Encyclopedia/Historical roots of Catholic Eucharistic theology
		The historical roots of Roman Catholic Eucharistic theology are the basis upon which a number of ecclesial communities, or churches, express their faith in the "bread of life" as given by Jesus, and are to be found in the Church Fathers, Scripture, the writings of Thomas Aquinas, and other early church writings and traditions.
		In this, the Eucharist would be analogous to the sacrifice upon which it is based, the execution of Christ himself, which is seen as the end of all bloody sacrifice, whether animal or human.
		The active liturgical life of the Catholic faith is a key element in the theology of the Eucharist.

	Theology Today - Vol 43, No. 1 - April 1986 - ARTICLE - Catholic Liturgical Reform
		The importance of the Eucharist in the life of the community and its central role within the sacramental economy are beyond doubt.
		There is no possible doubt regarding the intrinsic link between the Eucharist and the sacraments, but a frequent rite inclusion in the Mass of baptism, confirmation, and other sacraments does not allow the momentum and space due to specific rites that sanctify decisive events of human life.
		In other words, if the Eucharist is the source and summit of the whole Christian life, this communal prayer action cannot be anything but inclusive of all the hopes and sufferings, joys and struggles of the actual local and global community.

	The Trouble with Anglo-Catholicism (This Rock: September 2001)
		However, the roots of Anglicanism are solidly Protestant, and the claim that Anglo-Catholicism is the genuine Anglican tradition does not stand up in the light of history.
		Despite the fact that extreme Puritans condemned Laud as a Romanist, he was firmly Protestant in his theology and in ecumenical discussions with a Catholic monk rejected transubstantiation, the apostolic succession, and the doctrine that the Eucharist was a propitiatory sacrifice.
		Some Catholic nuns have joined so they can be "ordained." The Episcopalians have a well-financed outreach to Hispanics, and into its fold every year the Episcopal church receives thousands of former Catholics who refuse to accept the moral teaching of the Catholic Church.

		At one point he applies this to the individual: the Eucharist is that sacrament which "gathers together into unity the divisions within us" (66), and then, later in the chapter, to the collective, where it is the function of the Eucharist to bring us together without divisions "among ourselves" (67).
		We thus enter the Church through baptism, commune at the eucharist, reflect on the altar itself, and then trace the movement of divine grace moving down from the altar in order to finish once again "outside the doors" of the Church in hope of the Resurrection.

		Meier points out Jesus' historical ``marginality''--his peripheral involvement in the society, history, and culture of his age--that ironically underscores the central position he has occupied in Western culture in the centuries since he died.
		For centuries Catholics, seeking to preserve both the eternal virginity of Joseph and Mary, have sought to argue that the references in the gospels to brothers are really to his cousins.
