To be fair, Catholics (and all related churches) believe they are eating the ACTUAL flesh of Christ, not doing so symbolically.

I have been following the recent spate (in the US) of people (no good for nothing crazy students and similar ne'er do wells) taking the holy wafer into their mouths but not consuming it and basically smuggling it out of the church to desecrate in some humorous/youtube way.
The church have been livid with outrage, to the point of attempting to effect an arrest on grounds of kidnap.
Silly Idiots, these people are wasting their time.
I would love to have 'Kidnap of a cracker' on my criminal record.
It would go just under 'assault and battery of a custard cream' and 'indecent exposure in front of a Carr's water biscuit'
