Then Jesus said to them: Amen, amen I say unto you: Except you eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, you shall not have life in you. (John 6:54)

You like that verse, eh??? Your entire religion is built on that one verse...You care to show us the verse that gives your priests the authority and ability to turn wafers and wine into Jesus' flesh and blood???

You are right! It is built upon that one verse because that verse is what Christ commands us to do.

You religion is built on the rejection of what Christ commands you to do in that verse.

Catholics=John 6:53-58 Everyone else=John 6:60-66

One verse would be enough, given the inspired nature of the Holy Scripture. However, the Catholic Eucharistic theology is supported by the words of the Institution (Mt 26:26-28, Mk 14:22-24, Lk 22:19-20), the teaching on the Real Presence in John 6 and 1 Cor. 11:23-29, and the typology of the transsubstantiation in the Road to Emmaus episode (Lk 24).
