not pagan rites and superstitions like "masses" and "sacraments, both of which are abomination to God!

I can't let that statement go by without a comment. The first and most important sacrament is Baptism. So I guess you better tell John the Baptist and Jesus that they performed an "abomination to God".

And if you think that the celebration of the Mass is another "abomination" - you better inform Jesus, who after changing the bread and wine into his body and blood, said, "Do this in memory of me"

I guess he must have just been joking!

Just because Jesus baptised doesn't make the artificial, made-up "mass" legit. And when he said do this in memory of me, He meant just that. He didn't say eat me! Much of the Bible is alegorical. "I am the door" is a good example.
