    Depends. As far as I know only a few groups consider it to be literally body/blood and most are clear that they believe it to be symbolic. A lot of churches also just use grape juice now instead of wine so can’t get them on drug use even if alcohol were considered a drug

      Most non-Protestant denominations (Catholics, Eastern Orthodox, etc.) teach that it’s a literal, miraculous physical change.
