They had to. No one going up to communion would leave without consuming to host, the ushers would not let them. They watch for that kind of thing. We do hold it to be sacred.
And by the way why do Satanists want to desecrate the Mass by having a black one that makes fun of it?
My Atheist wife went to church on mothers day out of respect for her religious mother. When the cracker and wine was handed to her she passed it on. Her mother gave her a disappointed look, but the ushers were cool with it, and nobody died.
If Atheists were who they say they are, they'd be on some heavy drugs, enjoying themselves (Because why not?)
Instead, they are on this forum, proselytizing like the preachers they are.
Why would Atheists be on heavy drugs anymore then anyone else? I only know one Atheist really well and she loves life and respects her body and mind way too much to take any drugs.
And she doesn't proselytize at all, I do, but then I'm Agnostic, so there's that.

The host is never passed around, you were not in a Catholic church so you know nothing abut the case I sited. You have no idea what I was siting but you still said I was wrong. HMMMMM
Many "modern atheists" are the radical ones, that is why we have so many court cases for religious liberty now.
The mind of the "modern atheist" is no different from the mind of anyone who does not believe in Santa and his team of flying reindeer. Belief in flying reindeer and belief in a flying reanimated corpse require more blind faith and gullibility than some people possess.

I understand your audience, but I'm sure you realize that belief in "flying reanimated corpse" does not equal belief in God, not even for all Christians.

According to Acts of the Apostles, the followers of Jesus claimed that his corpse came back to life and subsequently flew off, up into the sky. Believing that this actually occurred as an act of God is no different from believing that certain reindeer have the ability to fly because Santa has magic. Both claims require a suspension of disbelief and require subscribing to blind faith and a childlike belief in make believe.
Should the government be allowed to purge the public square of religious and historical symbols? The American Humanist Association thinks so. Oral Arguments tomorrow! → https://buff.ly/2GJLtmo
Importance to religious liberty
Public square: The government is not required to strip the public square of important symbols just because they are religious.
