It's is a funny label and one that affirms what I believe however I see no problem in the FDA wanting the actual ingredients listed as the host wafers are what they are in normal substance until they also become the body and blood of our Eucharistic Lord when consecrated by the Priest.
Yep, the label is a hoot but is the CC frustrating people who are just trying to do their job the witness the Church needs?
I like your poster. (I will admit to a little unease in reducing Jesus to a vitamin when he's the whole Bread of Life--but hey, it's a poster! As a poster, it made me laugh, it made me think--so it worked. If I wanted a fully qualified theological treatise, I'd go read one :-).)
A more practical quibble--you repeated the word "your" on the poster.
That is actually a phrase we use when referring to the people who leave Mass early. "I got Communion, now I'm done," seems to be their thought pattern. Hubby said it's like they just want to get Jesus and leave, as though they're taking something no more important than a vitamin - Vitamin J. ;)
