You have not yet accepted the body of christ

So my grandfather died last week, it was expected and thats okay. Today was his funeral and yesterday was his viewing. Yesterday was alright it kind of bizzare seeing a corpse and its a family member, but today was kind of eventful. Now for the funeral we had a screwed up schedule its was at like 9:00 go to another one hour viewing, 10:00 go to St. Cecilias for a one hour mass, then at 11:00 go to the burial, and after the burial we had this lunchion thing or whatever. The viewing was okay i was a pallbearer with like eight other guys so that was cool, now the mass at the church was when something fucked up happend and ofcourse it happens to me. When we got to the church the pallbearers brought in the casket and its rolled out to the front and blessed. Afterwards we sit in the pews and just pray and shit. Then towards the end the priest gives you those little communion crackers that taste like shit. When I went up i didnt know whether he was going to put it in my mouth or just give it to us, i saw my sisters just hold their hands out so iam like okay ill just take it and walk away then eat it. When i go up he's like "the body of christ" i say Amen i take it and walk away, he goes like "Hey you!" loud as fuck and iam like what the hell do you want (not really) and he goes like "You have not yet accepted the body of christ" so iam like okay and i put the little cracker thing in my mouth and sit down, mean time my mom is like "what the fuck did you just do?!" and iam like "Shit I dont know!" Okay so after the mass we went to the burial, then ground was shitty and my feet were frozen and I almost fell on my ass like ten times carrying the casket. But the burial went as planned and we went to the lunchion thing, while we were there my uncle was cracking on me about the cracker inccident and my moms friend told me the priest confronted me because there has been this problem with satanic rituals involving those communion crackers and iam like "what the hell" that priest seriously thought i was going to perform a satanic ritual with that little cracker? ugh all this shit stirred up over a little cracker
