Transubstantiation
/trænz'səbˌstænʃiˈeɪʃᵊn/ (n.)

A Christian doctrine that during Holy Communion, that stale dry wafery thing and horrid sweet sherry you get a glug of is transformed into the actual body and blood of Jesus Christ, even though it still looks, and tastes, for all the world like the inside of a bottle cap and cooking wine.
