So where does the Bible teach sola scriptura? If nowhere, then what is the significance of something not being found in Scripture, especially it is part of the Tradition?

Paul said to follow the traditions that he preached...But, to avoid the traditions of men...In my view, your church doesn't sound a whole lot like what Paul had in mind...And Paul was the apostle to the Gentiles (as opposed to Jews)...

Even your first pope wouldn't let anyone bow down before him, let alone kiss his hand...Now that doesn't sound at all like your pope Benedict, does it???

Once you understood the *authority* of the Magesterium and the Tradition, then your objections above fall apart.
