If I consider the equivalent of Bible School professors in the Gospel accounts trying to relate to the Messiah and His Apostles, P the Apostle Peter I am astounded at how some of them completely missed what the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob was doing in the life of the Apostle Peter, as well as his brother Apostles. No, it would not matter had they studied Hebrew and Greek even more; they would still stumble over it.
The question is already answered in the Scriptures, and in history, for those who have faith to receive it.
Another mere assertion, as if the NT church in Scripture manifested a class of almost exclusively celibate men distinctively titled "priests" since their primary active function was that of offering up the "real" body and blood of Christ as a sacrifice for sins, and dispensing it to the people in order to obtain spiritual life. All of which is never seen in the life of the NT church, Acts onward, which is interpretive of the gospels.

Yes, it takes faith in Rome since it is absent within the Scriptures where it ought to be seen.
