I am not saying it; Catholic doctrine teaches Christ is present in every offering everywhere and forever the Eucharist is offered.
The context of the Eucharist from Passover Seder : sacrifice, real presence, priest, unblemished lamb

I know what Catholic doctrine teaches.
I'm trying to find our what YOU think it teaches.
A simple yes or no will suffice.
Do YOU believe Jesus is recrucified at every Mass?
No, because I do not believe in the Catholic doctrine.
That should have been plain .

You may think what you like but your question was
Do YOU believe Jesus is recrucified at every Mass?
and my answer is no.

I apologize Tom
Let me ask this way:
Do you believe that in Catholic teaching, Jesus is being recrucified at every mass?
Sorry 'bout that.

Well, then Tom, you're answer would be correct.
Jesus is NOT recrucified at every Mass.
Except I don't THINK it's what you meant.
Not to belabor the point, but I DO believe you misunderstood the question...
which was probably how I worded it.
Now if you were to ask me if Catholic doctrine holds that the Eucharist is a pre-presentation of that sacrifice and that they hold it to be a bloodless sacrifice and that Christ is called down from heaven to be present in the elements over and over then I would say yes

OK Tom.
I'll end with this:
MANY Protestants believe that Jesus is recrucified at every Mass. (which is not true).
This is different than re-offering the sacrifice at every Mass.
Along with this...the laity's sacrifices are added,
as Paul states in
Colossians 1:24
24 Now I rejoice in my sufferings for your sake, and in my flesh I do my share on behalf of His body, which is the church, in filling up what is lacking in Christ's afflictions.
I just believe it's important to understand that Catholics are not devoid of wisdom and do not recrucify Jesus at every Mass.
Thanks for your reply.
