That makes a lot more sense. I thought that somehow transubstantiation contributed to your naturalism, and not towards your departure from mysticism.
As a Roman Catholic schoolchild, transubstantiation was the dogma that ignited my awareness of how mystical that theology was. Considering how diligently my parents and teachers were striving to foster my reason, logic, and scientific thought, this awareness inevitably led to contemplation and eventually my subscription to naturalism.
Funny, I had the opposite reaction: "Aha, makes sense to me."
Would you care to elaborate? That is a pretty strange statement.
This concept is largely responsible for my naturalist philosophy.
