Remember, He also apparently said something like “this is my body, true flesh which will profit nothing”.

If you're going to try to quote Scripture, do try to quote Jesus accurately.

It's easy to look up Bible passages online.

John 6:63 It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh is no help at all. The words that I have spoken to you are spirit and life.

Do you always make fun of what Jesus said?

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. 64 But there are some of you that believe not. For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were that believed not, and who should betray him.

You see. In the end of His words when many left He explained rather clearly that it was not the literal flesh. Catholics like to leave that part of the passage off don’t they.

Matthew 15:17 Do not ye yet understand, that whatsoever entereth in at the mouth goeth into the belly, and is cast out into the draught?

Make sport of what Jesus all you want but understand the implications and consequences.
