IfyourChurchisestablishedbyGod, andifChristisreallypresentinthe TabernaclesofyourChurches,which havebeendesecratedbytheinvaders,whydoesnotGodstrikethem dead,insteadofallowingthemto trampleHimunderfoot?

Inthefirstplace,yourquestionis basedonamisunderstandingofthe CatholicdoctrineoftheRealPresence. ChristisreallypresentintheHoly Eucharist,notonlyasGodbutalsoas man.HeispresentinallthemajestyofHisDivinity,inallthesplendourofHisglorifiedHumanity,but bothDivinityandHumanityarehiddenundertheappearancesofbread. Theappearancesofbreaddesign'stethe presenceofChrist,buttheyarenot Christ.Hence,thosewhoattemptto desecratetheEucharistmaysubject theHosttoeverykindofindignity, buttheycanneithertouchnorharm theChristwhoistherepresent.

Intherightorderofthings,the lower,animalnatureofmanshould besubordinatedtothecontrolofreasonandtothelawofGod.OurFirst parentshadthatcompleteself-control but,bytheirsin,theylostitbothfor themselvesandfortheirdescendants.
