no you didn’t miss my anser, you quoted it to start your post.

So then it must have been SPIRITUAL FLESH... not the actual real fleshand blood of Christ .... you know mormons have doctrine too.. you can keep appealing to doctrine..but it gains you no points... Catholic doctrine is based on pagan practices and beliefs

Ignatius of Antioch, Epistle to the Smyrnaeans, Chapter 6, 110 A.D.:
Take note of those who hold heterodox opinions on the grace of Jesus Christ which has come to us, and see how contrary their opinions are to the mind of God ... They abstain from the Eucharist and from prayer because they do not confess that the Eucharist is the flesh of our Savior Jesus Christ, flesh which suffered for our sins and which that Father, in his goodness, raised up again. They who deny the gift of God are perishing in their disputes.

St Ignatius, personally instructed in the Faith by St John, wrote this 1,901 years ago and though he was talking about the Gnostics of his day, could very well have been speaking to the non-Christians on this thread. keep perishing in your disputes.
