With all respect due the traditions of the various SB groups, I
sometimes muse if there is a belief that Jesus' first public miracle at
the Wedding at Canaan was 1) turning water into pasteurized, processed
grape juice, or 2)  grape juice preserved so that it is the ONLY juice
in the world that did not spontaneously ferment.  Or that his Jewish
heritage somehow got corrupted at the Last Supper away from the wine of
Passover rituals to some non-fermented beverage found . . . somewhere.

Now, modern dry communion wafers stick to the roof of the mouth like no
substance known to man.  No chance anyone in 30AD was making or eating
those pressed cotton discs!
