In the Christian Eucharist elements of cannibalism are ritually preserved because the divine Christ, whose blood and flesh is ritually consumed in the bread and wine offering, is based on the historical Jewish man Jesus of Nazareth.

Is it therefor a coincidence, that the blood libel or ritual murder libel only developed in Gentile Christianity and in no other religion on earth the ancient Jewish civilization has ever come in contact with?
