"Nowhere in John 6 does Jesus claim His presence is merely spiritual..."

Merely spiritual? - To one that has not the spirit perhaps it is "merely" spirit, but to the body of Christ, Spirit is everything here on Earth.

John 6:
63] It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.

What we call life here on Earth is not life in the kingdom of God; it is corruption.

Since you lack the spirit, you lack understanding of things spiritual.

I never said “merely spirit”. I said merely spiritual - as in “merely a spiritual presence” as opposed to Real Presence.

“Since you lack the spirit, you lack understanding of things spiritual.”

No, actually I apparently understand them better than you do. I also did not twist your words. I do not engage in such dishonest tactics. I suggest you do the same so you don’t look so much like a hypocrite.
