Well, the interpretation is man’s interpretation. I think its obvious Jesus was speaking metaphorically. So no, we don’t eat the body or drink the blood of Christ, and it doesn’t miraculously change when we consume them either.

When we take the Eucharist we are commemorating Jesus’s last meal before being crucified for our sins. It’s a formal commemoration performed with blessed bread and wine, to convert them into the Eucharist sacraments.

To you, it may be...to 1,300,000,000 Catholics, and to innumerable Catholics over 20 CENTURIES, it is the Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity of Christ under the appearance of bread and wine....How sad that you can't comprehend the truth...
