2,000 years of observing the Eucharist, the REAL PRESENCE of Jesus in the Mass, observed since the very beginning of Christianity, observed by more Christians around the world than the couple million protestants that make fun of it and pick and choose what they want to believe in the Bible.
I rest my case. You my friend, you are seriously outnumbered.
But you know more than all the world’s greatest theologians since the beginning of Christianity.
And I might add you even know more your great hero who broke up the Church, Martin Luther. Even the egotistical Luther believed in the Eucharist and the Real Presence and had a great devotion to the Blessed Mother. But of course he was wrong, that was just the “Catholic” in him.
The term "Real Presence" is said to not originally be a Catholic term at all, but that it history is mostly Anglican.

I see, So the term "Real Presence" came from Catholics who believed in transubstantiation, and Truth in Christianity is decided by a church that subjects Scripture to herself, versus what the NT church in Scripture was taught?
Among other contradictions and contrasts , you have an approx 1900 year old complete Bible, which nowhere teaches literally eating flesh as a means of gaining spiritual and eternal life, nor of a church in which doing so was the "source and summit" of its faith, with zero "priests" dispensing changed flesh and blood as part of their ordained duties, and instead they are "nourished up in the words of faith and of good doctrine," (1Tim. 4:6) with preaching being their required main function, (1Tim. 3:2; 2Tim. 4:1,2) and which are not once titled "priests."
All of which can be soundly established. You are seriously outweighed!
Even the egotistical Luther believed in the Eucharist and the Real Presence
You are using the term loosely, which is also necessary for your claimed consensus of CFs. Luther is more closely associated with consubstantiation, which some CFs are also seen to be, and which is not the same.
But invoking CFs or Luther as reproving us simply examples the error of RCs , which looks to men over Scripture, and thus their desperate polemics RCs either fault us for following or not following Luther!
