For me, eating a baked potato is to take a religious experience the Eucharist. Why Am I Evil?

Starch and butter with a little cheddar cheese, sprinkled with natural sea salt, it is important for my happiness. WAY better than meat-cardboard wafers and wine bitter blood.
  Does this mean I'm wrong and goes to hell?
  (Full disclosure: I used to take Catholic communion, but I have not been a mass of nearly a decade. I am now an atheist. … But if I was still a catholic, this would be true.
  This question was inspired by my lunch.)

    The Last Supper gets all the press, but I think the third to the last dinner was a baked potato with trimmins all that God became flesh. You are not in danger.

  2. no1home2 says:

    Just out of curiosity, what exactly is your definition of a "religious experience"? What makes it "religious"?
      Anything that you can make a religious experience if it is doing for the glory of God, whether washing dishes, eating a baked potato fully loaded, or go to church and join others in a time of worship.
      But if it is not of God (and who claim to be atheists), then what, exactly, makes it "religious"?

    I agree with you! But I think my chocolate dessert is more divine his papa!
      I used to take communion, as was raised Catholic.
      My first comment to eat the "host" as a young man who was tested as a cross between the styro-foam and fish guts. It has a starchy texture like bread that has been allowed to get old, dry, and develop a sour smell. When the bread melts in your language that suddenly has a sticky consistency that feels like mud.

  4. MikeyG says:

    No, I do not think so.
      Bread and wine used in communion, and that is what we had at the Last Supper, but are used as symbolism … The bread as the body of Christ and the wine as blood.
      If the intention is pure, nothing can be used instead. In my church, we use pieces of bread instead of wafers and grape juice, instead of wine.

    God is omnipotent, it is still in your dad ……..
      He is your daddy
      Ay ay you, to those who do not worship God potatoes. He came to you in this form, you are now full of goodness.
      LOL
      I think not only you, hehehehehe!

    If I tried to take communion, I was incredibly surprised - the wafer burned like acid!
      I thought I was going to die! It was like eating a thousand Habaneros at once - there are still scars on my tongue.
      Catholics must like spicy food. I have not seen anyone else react at all.

  7. DougLawr says:

    You're writing about two totally different experience, with two very different purposes.
      Besides … throughout the whole world knows the structure of the universe is based on the pizza … No potatoes.

  8. Christy ☪☮e✡is✝ says:

    That is exactly how I feel about pumpkin pie … mmmmmmm ….
      Great now I'm craving pumpkin pie! I wonder if they have pumpkin flavored ice cream at Coldstone out yet …
      If that is wrong then I do not want to be right!

  9. SmokeyD says:

    No, this is not to say that you go to hell. God has a sense of humor. He invented the platypus afterall.

  10. Sldgman says:

    No, just means you have very limited understanding and appreciation of the Eucharist.
      So sad.

  11. TheOne says:

    I do not even know what the Eucharist is and I never saw this word in the Bible, but I am familiar with the bread and wine.

  12. Ember Atheist Intent says:

    There is no better wine - or even baked potatoes.

  13. Mustafa Leek says:

    You are only wrong if it's the tuna.

  14. bigbadde says:

    Add some chives and bacon bits, and I'm there with her sister.

    I have that feeling with a center cut beef filet mignon (rare)

  16. Footy says:

    Forget the butter … you have to try it wet with a good extra virgin olive oil …. sinful and so very delicious!

  17. S K says:

    If that is the evil, the world needs more from him.

  18. Sara says:

    Potatoes Devils in hell fruit spreads throughout the winter.

  19. ? says:

    No - the beer and chips and salsa is the only "true religion"

    Take your blasphemous ad elsewhere. You will suffer in the Hell.
