Denial or affirmation of the Real Presence is not a theolgical dispute between Catholics and Protestants, but rather between Protestants and Protestants.

Article 10 of the Augsburg Confession, the original confessional statement of those who later became known as Lutherans states:

It is taught among us that the true body and blood of Christ are really present in the Supper of our Lord under the form of bread and wine and are there distributed and received. The contrary doctrine is therefore rejected.

Lutherans and Catholics/Orthodox are divided on the nature of that presence. Consubstantiation vs. transubstantiation.
