    I guess there is no way to know how many Catholics there are, or how many took place in this event, but lets just say lots of Jesuses have been consumed.

      ok plasma is about 4.5 % of body weight so assuming a 200 pound Jesus, 9 pounds are of blood,


      plasma and blood are not the same thing.

      there is a whole lot more in blood that just plasma . . .

        plasma is the liquid portion though, does wine only come from that or all of blood?

          i would think all of the blood. catholics don't say that the wine become plasma, they say it becomes blood.

          I guess there is no way to know how many Catholics there are,


          Sure there is. I just don't know how to figure it out. Apparently, neither do you.

            Whats the total number of Catholics?
            1.06 billion Roman Catholics. But don't forget the non-RC churches who recognize the primacy of Rome, and the schismatics, such as the Orthodox. Then there's the Anglicans. All believe in transusbtantiation or other terms for the change into the body of Christ, IIRC.
            I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

                Technically, the Anglicans cannot have proper communion since they do not have Catholic priests.

                But this is the problem with your calculations:

                Does each wafer count as a single Jesus?
                There are many communions, yet only one Christ.

                The correct answer to your question is one. There has only been one Christ, and all the communions will not add or detract from this number.

                  I knew this answer was coming eventually. Again, I didn't mean for this to be offensive, I'm just trying to have some fun with it, and be a little humorous. Work with me, man. . .

                      Come on, besides the number of practising ppl who believe in transwhateber throughout time, the rest are constant parameters that we can evaluate pretty well, so get digging!!
