The atheists who go to great lengths to remove harmless religious references from american government are not doing so because of the fact that it will do any good. They're doing so because they are bitter people and they are looking for a sadistic outlet for it, in the form of being a litigant spoilsport. They're trying to irritate people, or they're trying to compensate for something. They are horrid assholes and the only things they accomplish are making people mad and wasting huge amounts of taxpayer money on the frivolous legal proceedings that they cause to happen. They aren't doing anything that comes anywhere close to being useful. They are being a detractor from society, and they need to stop wasting everyone else's time and money with their petty childishness.

Maybe not, in the long run, but no explanation, no mix of words or music or memories can touch that sense of knowing that you were there and alive in that corner of time and the world.

You're not supposed to, but I doubt lga0302 knew that, so it's all good. The beauty of transubstantiation is that it occurs whether or not the one consuming the body of Christ is aware of what he is doing. 
Congratulations on your first communion lga0302!
I am quite certain that I have given first communion to a number of people, usually at wedding and funerals.
Are you a Eucharistic Minister Dan?

I was a seminarian for the last couple of years. I just dropped out of the program over Christmas.
There is a formula to the ritual. The Eucharistic minister says "The body of Christ", and the communicant is supposed to say "Amen" before receiving and consuming the host. When somebody comes forward who doesn't know the ritual, chances are that person is not Catholic. It happens a lot at weddings because there are usually people of many different religions present.
----------
I have gone to Church high many times, and even served a few times while high. The later I am not proud of.
I was high for the entirety of the Easter Triduum last year, and I'm thankful for the experience, though this year I hope to be sober for them. Catholic liturgies are not only about worship and community, if they are properly executed, they are also pedagogical tools which bring to life a sublime theology. Being a little bit high can often open one's mind to see the profoundity of the mysteries.

lga0302 said: first lemme just say i am 100% athiest. so yesterday i got pretty ripped and i had nothing to do, so i went to church. i got there a few minutes early, sat down in the far back row and the show began. first someone walks in with a cross, then with some alter boys and i dunno who else was there and then a priest came in. I'm guessing he was the priest cause he talked the majority of the hour and he was dressed rather flashy? I asked the woman next to me what type of church this was and she seemed kinda offended that i even asked. so i then asked a college student next to me and he said "its catholic man" the whole time i paid attention, listened to every word, but i did not participate in any of the praying. the weirdest part about church is that people really believe in this guy that walked around 2000 years ago saying he was god. during a prayer the lady next to me had her eyes closed and recited a whole prayer. like i dunno she really digs it. then we got up and received what tasted like, mushrooms? it tasted sooo much like them. it was my munchies! but just a lil saucer of it i wanted to take more but seemed kinda tough. after that i sat down and looked at the cross wondering more about the existence of god. maybe there is i dont know, i really dont think there is, maybe im agnostic i aunnno. church is weird
I totally believe in God and Jesus, but I don't think that the weird things they do in church are representative of Him.

Go to a black baptist church. It's pretty much the opposite.

Ephesians 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Psalm 12:6 The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. Hebrews 11:3 Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear. Revelation 3:11 Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.
