I don't think you get the gist of what the Pope is saying.

"Amen, amen, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you do not have life within you"  (Jn 6:53).

Thus only Catholics who believe in and partake of the "Real Presence" are Christians, and saved. At least you are consistent with the RC use of Jn. 6:53, though physical consumption is not how souls obtained life in themselves in Scripture, but by believing the gospel message, (Acts 10:43; 15:7-9), and your view renders you to be akin to sedevacantists.
