Definitely more annoying than Dawkins tweeting about the Doctrine of the Real Presence as if it& #39;s somehow this new shocking discovery about Roman Catholicism (maybe it is for him?) is the fact that many of the replies are from self-professed Catholics denying the doctrine.

When I was young I held opinions that were contrary to Church Teaching, but then I realized that if the Church is Christ& #39;s Body, then when the Church speaks dogmatically it& #39;s Christ speaking, and I had better get in line with Doctrine lest by denying it I deny Christ.

This is just to show that the problem isn& #39;t unique to the RCC, I& #39;ve met many Orthodox, mostly nominal but some extremely active, who hold private objections to clear teaching on a variety of issues, even some issues of doctrine.
