Title: World of a Tradcat
Post by: Pelly on January 28, 2013, 03:18:26 PM
After reading Catholic Cartoon Blog, Sword of Peter and the like, I've decided to draw faith-related cartoons. And here's my blog (http://worldofatradcat.wordpress.com/). Actually, I've started drawing them earlier (and the first on deals with liturgical abuse), but this is the first I've uploaded.
Also, Pelly was already in use.
What do you think? I'll update is ASAP.

Click on the article's name, which is "Full life with a diet (or not)". That will bring up the cartoon.

Very clever drawing!

But you misunderstand, Pelly. The presence of Jesus in the fragment is not less than His Presence in the whole Host.

May God bless you.

@Nadir The Presence is constant (like as in a constant graph), but the Presence lasts until the Sacred Species dissolve. Do you know the practice of disposing a Host properly?

I am not a theologian. so these are just my thoughts :
Jesus is greater than that! His presence as Food for our souls is not restricted to the presence of the physical. He is Spiritual Food. We receive Him Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity in the consecrated host. Just as good food nourishes us (and bad food makes us sick) the effects stay with us and govern our wellbeing so the presence of Jesus stays with us, as long as we do not sin.

THE CATECHISM OF ST. PIUS X
The Blessed Eucharist

46 Q: How long does Jesus Christ abide within us after Holy Communion?
A: After Holy Communion Jesus Christ abides within us by His grace as long as we commit no mortal sin; and He abides within us by His Real Presence until the sacramental species are consumed.
NOTE: The consumption of the species is not the same as the consumption of the sacrament. We consume the sacrament when we receive Communion. The species are consumed when what we have received would no longer appear to be bread or wine.


The presence of Jesus Body, Blood, Soul, Divinity in the Particle is not lessened by the fragmentation of the whole Host. If the priest finds he is short of Hosts when he distributes Holy Communion, he will break the Host/s so that every person presenting at the communion rail can receive. None of us who receive a Fragment ever think that Jesus will not be with us as long as He is with those who receive a whole Host. So you can put your mind to rest over this question.

I hope that someone else here will answer this question. Otherwise I will come back to it. Maybe you could give an example of a situation that you envisage.

I read that the Real Presence lasts until the Sacrad Species are dissolved. This is followed up by a spiritual presence by graces until we sin. And I meant extreme fragmenting.

It does not matter how small is the fragment.

Jesus is equally present regardless of the small size of the fragment. That is one reason why Communion in the hand is such a horrible sacriligeous practice - because inevitably in passing the Host from the ciborium to the recipient's hand, tiny fragments fall onto the floor and are trampled by other communicants.

That tiny Fragments detach and drop from the Host is the reason why in the true believing Church, a communion plate is always held under the chin of the communicant; then after the Communion the priest is very careful to collect all those Fragments, which are the Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of Our Blessed Lord, and put them into the Chalice from which he consumes them.

I hope you understand now, that however small is the fragment, it is nevertheless the Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of Our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

I call these crumbs "Jesus particles". I even said to a NO classmate that "Do you mind that there might be Jesus particles left in your hand?".
I know that the Presence is constant likein a constant graph. As you see, a constant graph has only one y value for each x value. That would be true for the Presence (except for the negative numbers). Also, I think that there is a correlation between the duration of the Real Presence  and the size and thickness of a particle. Like, thick hosts mean longer Presence, but this gives the problem of desecration. The longer the Presence, the longer the interval of profanablity (I've heardabout the thick host issue on 33cc). EDIT: I'd call it the "Pie Pelicane" dilemma.
