ensuring transsubstantiation
Don't really know, and don't care, as I don't believe in the doctrine of transsubstantiation. But I do know this was/is big time stuff and no priest would take any chances. The last thing one would want to happen would be for someone to receive a piece of ordinary bread instead of consecrated bread changed into the body of Christ; he would not be in a state of grace and, God forbid, he might die while in a state of sin, and go to hell (or purgatory at least). You may think this is a lot of hair-splitting, but a pious Catholic would take all this most seriously.
Where's Father Steve when you want him? Come to that, where is he anyway -- haven't heard from him in weeks.
