Simply, what are the “best” arguments have against Real Presence?

Is it fair to say that, if Jesus did not really mean “you must eat my flesh and drink my blood” in John 6, why did he make reference to his “flesh” being the bread of life in John 6 and THEN holding up bread at the Last Supper and saying “THIS is my body”?

If it is not what Catholics say it is, then, OBJECTIVELY, did Jesus do something unnecessarily cryptic and misleading?

WHY DID HE HAVE TO REFERENCE “BREAD” AT ALL? Why not be clear that what he was showing the Apostles at the last supper was NOT really his body?

What do Protestants say here? It must be clear and not open to honest, objective debate.

Is it objectively fair to say that if Jesus was just speaking metaphorically then he was vague and ambiguous and therefore misleading?

Be objective here please.
