Of course it's a moral belief, Catholics believe they are doing something moral by drinking the blood and eating the body of Christ. A cannibal's morality, if you will.
 
Look up transubstantiation.  It's the belief that the Eucharist and the wine are actually transformed into the body and blood of Christ.  It's not a moral issue.
