Christianity is a good life lived

All week the Irish Times has carried a series on the Catholic Church in Ireland.

In one report it quoted an Irish Times/IpsosMRBI survey that 26 per cent of Catholics believe in transubstantion.

Does that mean that 74 per cent have no devotion to the Eucharist? Hardly.

Christ is not in place in the Eucharist in the same way that I am stiting in this chair. And to say anything about place, an understanding of Aristotilian categories is necessary.

Theologian Gina Menzies gets it right when she says, " The ultimate test pf Christianity is how we live our lives, rather than what we claim to believe".
