520 |a The mind/body dualism that has long pervaded western society has also found its way into the church. Such dualism in the church leads to an ignoring of the needs, abilities, and disabilities of peoples’ bodies. It also overlooks the crucial fact that Christ himself had a body.

In so doing, Christ binds us to himself and to one another. By approaching communion and embodiment in this way, the church can correct its all-too common dismissal of bodies and can be welcoming and inclusive of all people.
