Early mistrust of Christianity from other religions had a lot of problem with the "eating the body/blood of Christ" thing, because a lot of pagans found it to be too close to actual cannibalism for their liking.
I don't mean to be rude in your LJ, but that is so completely untrue. Non-Christian faiths at the time of the genesis of Christianity actually complained vociferously their disgust that the Christians had stolen Pagan religious forms lock, stock, and barrel, with no credit given. There were no pagans at that time complaining about cannibalism.
