First, of all, my FRiend, the word "protestant" doesn't come near what I believe about the Cult of Rome. I am not a "protester", I am a crap-detector and it is a mile high and very stinky across the Tiber.
Second of all, Jesus did not tell you to hire some pedophile in a bathrobe and a pointy hat to say weird words over a biscuit and chalice and CLAIM to have that turn into His body and blood. Where the hell (and I do mean HELL) did your boys cook up that pipe-dream?
Then, for the sheeple to "eat" Him each Sunday hoping that they can die before committing any more sin (because most forgot to go to confession and get absolution by saying 14 paternosters and 532 hail marthas)...HERE is the most monstrous blasphemy of all. It has nothing to do with Jesus' words.
But, then there is the Mariolatry, the gold, the popemobile, the icons, the indulgences, the purgatory, the genuflecting, the kissing rings, the self-made religion. And, then the fact that RCs don't really read the text (or can't read the text, because headquarters won't let them interpret the plain words on the page) and understand that, as Paul said, it is "...by grace you are saved through faith and that NOT OF YOURSELVES, it is a gift of God, not as a result of ANYTHING YOU HAVE DONE, lest any man turn into an RC"
"Then, for the sheeple to "eat" Him each Sunday"
Zeroing in on what you said regarding the question at hand -- Jesus gave His apostles the gift of doing as He did at the Last Supper -- "do this in memory of me." Apostolic succession leads to the "pedophile in a pointy hat" as you term it. Melchizidek blessed bread, Jesus used bread, we use bread. Then we eat the bread made Flesh, because Jesus said, "eat my Flesh." The Jews murmured, and Jesus said yet again, "eat my Flesh."
Of all the things Protestants object to, why this? It is straight out of the mouth of Christ Himself.
