Jesus said, "I tell you the truth, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you" (John 6:53)

Me, I trust Jesus, not "iscool". Sorry, iscool.

Mar 7:18 And he saith unto them, Are ye so without understanding also? Do ye not perceive, that whatsoever thing from without entereth into the man, it cannot defile him;
Mar 7:19 Because it entereth not into his heart, but into the belly, and goeth out into the draught, purging all meats?

Sorry, but trusting your religion's private interpretation of scripture is NOT trusting Jesus...Here, Jesus disagrees with your understanding of the 'real presence' of your Eucharist...

Snort. Funny man. YOPIOS makes for belly laughs!

John 6 KJV:

53 Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in you.
54 Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and will raise him up at the last day.
55 For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed.
56 He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, dwelleth in me, and in him.
57 As the living Father hath sent me, and I live by the Father: so he that eateth me, even he shall live by me.
58 This is that bread which came down from heaven: not as your fathers did eat manna, and are dead: he that eateth of this bread shall live forever.

“Sorry, but trusting your religion’s private interpretation of scripture...”

As a Catholic, I am not a member of or a practitioner of a religion. Rather, I am/we are a people who believe in God the Father, Son & Holy Spirit as a matter of Faith.

Through the Catholic Church the Holy Spirit has interpreted Sacred Scripture for all who wish to partake.

Peace :)

John 15:1 "I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener.

Is Jesus green and leafy?

John 10:7 Therefore Jesus said again, "I tell you the truth, I am the gate for the sheep.

John 10:9 I am the gate; whoever enters through me will be saved. He will come in and go out, and find pasture.

Is Jesus rectangular and made from wood?

John 6:51 I am the living bread that came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever. This bread is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world."

Here He says His He is living bread and that His flesh is bread. That must mean that He is made of baked dough instead of muscle.

If the mass is to turn the Eucharist into the body and blood of Christ, then what is the white wafer that the priest uses? It's doesn't look much like flesh and blood to me.
