Why do we need to create a template to create darts?

We do that so that we can make sure that they get made the correct way, rather than mess it up on accident. We tend to make more mistakes if we don't make the proper precautions. It's better to play it safe then to risk messing something up.

Hope this helps.

sorry, wrong answer!

i believe the answer is  the similarity is that both are sacrifices which have the same purpose and sacrifice - jesus christ, but the difference is in offering of that sacrifice.

the similarity is that both are sacrifices which have the same purpose (repenting our sins) and sacrifice - jesus christ.  the difference is in the way of the offering that sacrifice. the sacrifice of jesus on the calvary is sacrifice of his actual living body and blood, but the sacrifice of the mass is the sacrifice of the jesus through bread (body) and blood (wine). in the sacrifice on calvary jesus was offered for us; while at mass he offers himself through us.
