>>You do so by fast-forwarding to some other passage that you like better, or by suggesting that the context makes the passage somehow void.<<

Actually we read the entire passage and compare it to ALL of scripture to be able to put it in context. Putting it in context makes nothing void. It puts in in perspective and gives understanding. Catholic interpretation leaves conflicts within scripture. The Jesus you portray has sinned by eating blood.

Putting it in context makes nothing void [...] The Jesus you portray has sinned by eating blood.

So you just voided

Then Jesus said to them: Amen, amen I say unto you: Except you eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, you shall not have life in you. He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath everlasting life: and I will raise him up in the last day. (John 6:54-55)
