the conflicting thought is that one to be considered by all who attend Catholic masses: are there UNCONSECRATED HOSTS that Catholic priests present to the faithful as CONSECRATED, i.e. lying to them? Because if there are, and I am not the only one who observes that, that would constitute a MAJOR violation of priesthood obligations that would require nothing short of a cleansing from the Vatican.

I havent filmed anything. It would be strange to film during consecration when people pray most.
During pope Benedict it could be seen in plain sight on the televised masses from the Vatican, the cups were missing from the altar. Now, since pope Francis was elected, that practice was stopped.
It could be seen at Medjugorje shrine, watch the evening mass what the priests do with the tabernacle during all the mass, they always move, open and close the tabernacle, during the entire mass, strange to say the least. And the cups with hosts are brought on the altar AFTER the consecration, they are NOT present at the consecration. They are brought from somewhere, they are so many that they cannot fit the tabernacle. And where were they consecrated if not on the altar during the mass? 62.75.216.148...
I will withhold the name of my parish for obvious reasons. I do not want to fall victim of my testimony. But the hosts are simply not present at any mass I attend, no matter Sunday, Saturday or weekday.

Left over consecrated host is stored in the Tabernacle of a Church. If we ran out, the Priest would get the Tabernacle reserves. Extra consecrated wine is consumed by the Priests following Eucharist. If there were a big crowd expected, I could see building up the Tabernacle reserves. The unconscrated host is stored in the Vestibule by the Altar.

would a fair synopsis of this thread be :
you have not personally witnessed the consecration of hosts at a local church
you saw the pope consecrate hosts at a major televised event
ergo - conspiracy = local priests are satanists and giving out unconsecrated host
does that about sum you up ?
because if it does - can you not see how bat crap crazy you sound ???
why priests are doing this - would be obvious question # 1
and despite later posts from you - you fail to coherently address this
