    Some Christians don’t believe that Jesus is God so they wouldn’t be eating God. Also I think eating Jesus is mostly a catholic thing

      Anyone who doesn’t believe that Jesus is entirely God isn’t a Christian. That’s not gatekeeping, its like saying someone can reject the prophet Muhammad and still be a Muslim. It just wouldn’t be true.

      I’m an Orthodox Christian, and we definitely eat God every Sunday. The Lutherans also believe they eat God but they define it more like we do than the Roman Catholics do. The Anglicans usually agree with the Catholics on how they eat God. Beyond just the groups named, I’m fairly certain no one else truly eats God’s flesh.
