Yes... but it follows a conditional; "if."
It is ironic that you are using your own personal interpretation of Scripture in these passages to fit your own need.
It would be... if that were true.
Now, if you keep John 6 in context, you will see He calls Himself the bread of life. A parable if you will.
Apparently, a parable only if it fits your view.
If we take this literally, then the disciples should have been literally eating Him right there on the spot. that they didn't is telling. They understood what He was saying.
What you say does not have to follow. That isn't an element of logic. The point is they didn't understand. That's why so many turned away. They understood His Words very clearly... they just didn't understand how it could be possible. The Apostles didn't understand it either, they just didn't leave. They trusted that what Jesus said would be and they stayed with Him because He spoke the truth... whether or not they understood it.
Yes...if it causes you to stumble...pluck it out. If you've ever looked upon someone with lust, then your eye(s) should be plucked out. You have both of your eyes??
Again, no maimed Christians running around as a result.

Well, I almost stopped reading after the if thing with the Greek, but after this last one I just stopped.
