The Church describes the Mass as the "source and summit of the Christian life", [4] and teaches that the Mass is a sacrifice, in which the sacramental bread and wine, through consecration by an ordained priest, become the sacrificial body, blood, soul, and divinity of Christ as the sacrifice on Calvary made truly present once again on the altar.
Eucharist (Koinē Greek: εὐχαριστία, romanized: eucharistía, lit.

In order to elaborate on his ritual view, and specifically its religious connotations, Carey uses an example of mass media, the newspaper. In this case, Carey likens newspaper reading to attending mass. He states, "attending mass, [is] a situation in which nothing new is learned but in which a particular view of the world is portrayed and ...
If a first body of mass m A is placed at a distance r (center of mass to center of mass) from a second body of mass m B, each body is subject to an attractive force F g = Gm A m B /r 2, where G = 6.67 × 10 −11 N⋅kg −2 ⋅m 2 is the "universal gravitational constant". This is sometimes referred to as gravitational mass.
In the context of relativity, mass is not an additive quantity, in the sense that one cannot add the rest masses of particles in a system to get the total rest mass of the system. [ 1 ] : 21 In relativity, usually a more general view is that it is not the sum of rest masses , but the energy–momentum tensor that quantifies the amount of matter.
L. Use of the Terms "Mass" and "Weight" [See Section K. NOTE] When used in this handbook, the term "weight" means "mass". The term "weight" appears when inch-pound units are cited, or when both inch-pound and SI units are included in a requirement. The terms "mass" or "masses" are used when only SI units are cited in a requirement.
