The transformation of bread and wine to the body and blood of Jesus Christ. Done in the ritual of the mass by Christians. In short, illogical bullshit.

Father Smith: "That's right."
Johnny: "Wouldn't His body be used up by now?"
Father Smith: ...oh, look Johnny. You're parents are leaving. See you next week.

A complex theological term applied to the process of the substance of bread and wine becoming the true substance of the body and blood of Christ. Transubstantiation only occurs when a validly ordained priest, in communion with the Holy See (i.e.: Rome) licitly celebrates mass according to the dictates of same.
Vaildly ordained priest + mass (ie: words of consecration approved by Holy See) + elements of bread and wine = Body and Blood of Christ via. transubstantiation.
