For what it is worth, we certainly don't consider communion to be cannibalism. And we oppose cannibalism.
It is true that we believe Jesus is physically present in the eucharist in a way that is not fully understood (hence why we refer to this as a great mystery). But it is, nonetheless, in the form of a wafer or bread... not raw human meat.
Thanks for answering, though.
It’s worth absolutely nothing that you would consider what you believe to be the eating of human flesh to not be cannibalism. The meaning of cannibalism is defined by the dictionary, not your doctrine nor personal cognitive dissonance.
