A wafer?
Does "a wafer" here mean "a holy bread/Christ holy blood"?
Context:
The equivalent of the moth's light-compass reaction is the
apparently irrational but useful habit of falling in love with one,
and only one, member of the opposite sex. The misfiring by-
product - equivalent to flying into the candle flame - is falling in
love with Yahweh (or with the Virgin Mary, or with a wafer, or
with Allah) and performing irrational acts motivated by such love.
