Why is Trans-substantiation a False Doctrine?

[Jehovah's Witness]

Definition: The belief that the Bread and the Wine at Mass literally become Christs body and blood when entering the mouth.

Doesn't taste like blood and flesh. Maybe it transforms when 2/3 of the way down the esophogus. That whole thing is invented by the Catholic Church. Did jesus say to light candles and burn incense? All those rituals are made up.

Because it's physically impossible?

Actually I believe you will find that the teaching is that it turns into His body and blood when it is blessed by the priest. Basically the Bible does not support this doctrine. It is symbolic of His body and blood nowhere in Bible or early church history documents is Trans-substantiation supported. The mass is another situation for it is totally against the teachings of the Bible. Jesus does not have to die over and over again. He died once for all sins.

No idea, take it up with Martin Luther and Ulrich Zwingli.
