Seems The Bishop Has No Faith?


The Right Reverend Christopher Budd, Roman Catholic Bishop for Plymouth has apparently lost his faith.
Why else would he suspend the use of communion wine because of fears over swine flu?

Surely one of the central tenets of Catholic belief is that the wine becomes the Blood Of Christ during the communion service?

How on earth could the Blood Of Christ transmit swine flu to believers? Are they not more likely to cop for something like HIV or CJD or some other nasty blood-borne disease? Or herpes?

They used individual cups for communion during the Great Plagues, I believe.
Didn't work every time - all that coughing, but faith doesn't mean stupidity.

Not a Christian myself, but I know which religion I'd prefer heading up the government if there must be one, and it's one that doesn't come with built-in scimitars...
