I have a little life in me, yes. Thanks be to God. I didn't realize the Apostles were all Catholic. My mistake (or not). Jesus lived a simple life and taught simple values about the love of God. He continually ran into problems with the local religious leaders because of their "traditions". Generally the older a churches history the more traditions and rituals they acquire. I prefer to meditate on Christs life than the teachings of any church. Who cares what you maintain Noone. I only have the authority of free will granted to me by God. And that's authority enough for me.

So, when Jesus establsihed His church upon the Papacy, and commanded His Apostles offer the Sacrifice of the New Covenant and consume the New Covenant meal, He was just teachinh simple values?

Are you speaking of the 12 Apostles who followed Jesus?
