    Ant:
    For starters, what about transubstantiation? i.e. the Roman Catholic belief
    that the Eucharist (that represents the presence of Christ in the mass) is
    literally the body and blood of Jesus.

    Scott:
    Where's the conflict? The doctrine of transubstantiation does not declare
    that something that science can measure has been changed. If you are going
    to say that there is conflict because science cannot detect Christ in the
    bread and wine, then you would have to say that art and science are in
    conflict because science cannot detect the beauty of a painting.
