Most definitely. The bread and wine undergo no physical change whatsoever.
They have a spiritual connotation, they are used in remembrance of Christ (Luke 22:19 & 1 Corinthians 11:24)
Remembrance being the operative word in the sacrament
from the dictionary:
remembrance:
1/.The ability to recall past occurrences
2/.A recognition of meritorious service
So the bread and wine is used to recall the deeds of Christ or to recognize his meritorious service to mankind, (plus the fact that he is now the living Saviour).
I see you quote the catholic church as your example, I would remind you that the catholic church was able to justify the inquisition also, to themselves.
So the facts remain the same:
Christians ceremonially practicing and celebrating life and faith,by remembering Christ who they believe is God / Son / Holy Ghost, their living Redeemer.
Conversely
muslims on a daily basis around the globe ritually practice human sacrifice (slaughtering their fellow man while invoking the name of the demonic allah, in order to appease this satanic islamic entity)
