So, yes, this is old news, but I haven't seen it on here and I've been without internet on and off for the last week (and crazy busy for over a month before that). Apparently gluten-free bread does not constitute acceptable communion food. GMOs are okay. But making a form of bread without gluten, no. This seems kind of dubious to me. I mean, I've never read a verse in the Bible that insists on gluten in communion. And that would mean the God who allowed certain people to have celiac disease would be mandating them to eat harmful food products(contradicting other verses which indicate people should value and take care of their bodies) or saying they couldn't take communion. But, hey, I suppose that commandment's found next to the verse where we're commanded to worship saints (another verse my Bible seems to be missing; I should get a refund!)
