You do read the Bible, don’t you?

Christ breathed on the apostles after his Resurrection giving them the power to bind and loose sins, thus ordaining them with the Holy Spirit as the first Bishops of the Church. And Christ gives the leadership of the apostles to Peter. We are still led by the succession of leaders from Christ to Peter and down through the Popes.

Even Paul talks about the Eucharist.

Yeah I do.
"And Christ gives the leadership of the apostles to Peter."

Not in my Bible. Maybe you have a different one.
"We are still led by the succession of leaders"
No, you are led by them. Not me. Nothing in the Bible says or suggests anything about a succession. That's why I read the Bible.
