"The Romans" didn't want to execute Jesus. Pontius Pilot, in fact, bent over backwards trying to find a way to free Him because he found no fault in Him.

Sure, he saw no reason to execute a religious nutjob up until Jesus said, "My kingdom is not of this world", and Pilate replied, "So you are a king? which would have been be a challenge to the authority of Caesar, sedition.

They only executed Him at the demand of the people.

Right again. After the crowd cried out "we have no king but caesar." according to the story that is. (John 19:15)

Homosexual behavior is observed in a wide range of animal species, not just humans. Some notable examples include penguins, bonobos, dolphins, and lions. These behaviors manifest in various forms, such as same-sex mating, pair bonding, and even raising offspring together.

Offensive to claim that God who is Spirit gives a shit about the sexual preferences of consenting adult bipeds.

Early Christians universally believed in the Real Presence of Christ in the Eucharist, the belief that the bread and wine become the body and blood of Christ. This understanding is evident in the writings of early Church Fathers like Ignatius of Antioch, Irenaeus, and Justin Martyr, who all affirmed that the Eucharist was the flesh and blood of Christ. They viewed it not as a mere symbol, but as a true and real participation in the sacrifice and life of Christ.

Here's a more detailed explanation:

Early Church Fathers' Testimonies:
Early Church Fathers, such as Ignatius of Antioch, Irenaeus, Justin Martyr, Hippolytus, and Tertullian, all affirmed the real presence of Christ in the Eucharist.

Ignatius of Antioch:
In the first century, Ignatius of Antioch emphasized that the Eucharist was the flesh of Jesus Christ and used this belief to combat Docetists who denied the reality of Christ's body. He also connected the Eucharist to the unity of the Church and its life in Christ.

Irenaeus:
Irenaeus, writing in the second century, explicitly stated that the bread and wine become the body and blood of Christ.

Justin Martyr:
Justin Martyr, in the mid-second century, also believed that the Eucharist was the flesh and blood of Jesus Christ.

No Disputes:
There are no records of disputes among early Christians regarding the nature of the Eucharist, with no one denying the Real Presence.

Not Just a Symbol:
Early Christians understood the Eucharist not as a mere symbol, but as a participation in the body and blood of Christ, often described as the "medicine of immortality".

Sacrificial Understanding:
The early Church also viewed the Eucharist as a sacrifice, connecting it to the sacrifice of Christ and the fulfillment of Old Testament prophecies

Tertullian disagrees.

Your Church, including over 30,000 denominations of Christianity itself, has the whole damn story all wrong. DUH You eat and drink, religiously, "without discerning the Body", and so have brought judgment UPON YOURSELF.

Thats the way the cookie crumbles. How is it that you don't know the right course to take? Where is your faith?

"He censures those who understood our Lord's words after the letter, (literally), as if they were to eat the carnal body. He expounds the spiritual thing which gives life as to be understood by the text: "the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit and they are life."

His word is the life-giving principle, therefore he called his flesh by the same appellation, so we are to "devour Him with the ear, RUMINATE on Him with the understanding, and digest Him by faith."

Tertullian. Ante-Nicene Fathers, Vol. III

Non-Christian historians recorded that the first Christians worshipped Jesus as God.

Some early Christians did, some did not.
