LOL!

Always, Proetestant are saying that they take the Bible literally. Are you taking this passage literally? It doesn’t appear that you believe Christ’s words, am I right?

"Always, Proetestant are saying that they take the Bible literally."

Who said I am a Protestant, or believe what they say? I am a scientist and believe what the evidence says.

Re: John 6:63, "The Spirit gives life; the flesh counts for nothing. The words I have spoken to you are Spirit and they are life.

"Are you taking this passage literally?"

Yes. It is God's explanation of His own metaphor given to all. It contradicts what the Church says about the metaphor of the body and blood, which is that the flesh counts for something. God says the flesh counts for nothing and the Church says the exact opposite. I'll believe what God says.

"It doesn’t appear that you believe Christ’s words, am I right?"

Appearances can be decieving. I said what I said in plain English. God took time out to explain His own metaphor and I note how many chose to ignore it in preference for something else.
