Your dates are all wrong. Are you using Carbon-14?

If images are so wrong, why did Jesus leave us His Shroud, Sudarium, and the Veil of Veronica, all of which are in the possession of the Catholic Church? Are family photo albums forbidden too?

Maybe the early church might not have had images in their churches because they were being constantly martyred for 300 years, did not have time for art, or maybe it was an Op-Sec thing? Maybe they said mass in underground caverns because church buildings might give away their location?

The institution of confession and the Eucharist are most clearly indicated in the Gospels, why are you deaf to the Word of God?

None of which are provable nor falsifiable.

Your claim is therefore just an assertion that cannot be proven.

The institution to a priest (not a church office, btw), is not found in Scripture. The "eucharist" in Scripture is the Lord's Supper - a memorial to do until He returns.

Sorry; but what ROME has called Eucharist is called THE PASSOVER MEAL in the Gospels.
