What I don't get is if transub. is real and Jesus is really and truly present, how can communion be a remembrance? You can only remember people who are not there at the time.
I don't know to which Christian denomination you belong, but I've noticed you and I have much common ground on a lot of Christian teaching. I'm not trying to pick a fight with you but I have one criticism about your video.
You stated that transubstantiation is an error on the part of Catholics and you used the video clip (5:11-21) to prove that Catholics believe that the consecrated bread trully is the Body of Christ. All of that is true, but I feel you did your viewers a disservice by not also mentioning that Catholics believe Jesus is present in the Eucharist Soul and Divinity as well as body and blood. You only mentioned the body and blood part.
While many might see it as an unimportant mistake, it really was gross error because it misrepresented the Catholic church's teaching on the Eucharist which is actually quite complicated( and can't be fully explained in a 10 second clip of a catholic televangelist)
The bread is the word and the cup is the participation in the suffering as Christ did.
