It’s only cannibalism if you are also a god. Otherwise its deitism?
TheRealKuni@lemmy.world 2 years ago
Ah, but the Athanasian creed clearly teaches the doctrine of hypostatic union, that Jesus is fully god but also fully man.
Since he is fully man, eating his body would indeed be cannibalism. Don’t take away the most metal part of Christianity.

I think eating your god is more metal than just eating a human.

There’s an Abbot and Costello skit in there somewhere. “You’re on a new diet?” “No I said deit.”
