Brian C. Muraresku: Could Jesus Exist Without Psychedelics?
Mayim Bialik's Breakdown
**Eating the Flesh and Blood of Jesus. You HAVE eternal life. **
In the Gospel of John, Jesus introduces the concept of eating his flesh and drinking his blood to his Jewish neighbors, resulting in confusion and disbelief among them due to the pagan and Greek nature of the idea. Contrary to the Jewish tradition, Jesus' description of this act as a cannibalistic meal was a novel concept in Jewish history. By stating 'whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life' in the present tense, Jesus emphasizes the immediate attainment of eternal life through consuming his flesh and blood. This act is not symbolic but transformative, leading to the concept of apotheosis where individuals become one with Christ and essentially become God. Despite the disbelief of many American Catholics in the literal transformation of bread and wine into the flesh and blood of Jesus, the invitation from Christ is for all Christians to become one with Him through this act.
