"Some Protestants recognize the Real Presence if Christ in His supper but not as Rome distorts it." How can the Real Presence POSSIBLY "be distorted"? Either the bread and wine become Body and Blood, or it doesn't. Christ says it does. Various Protestants, 1500 years after the fact, says it doesn't, or "metaphorically", or some other waffle. I'll take God at His Word.

JESUS told you "where two or more are gathered in my name, there am I in the midst of them." Spiritually He is present when two or more gather in His name. He mentioned nothing about 'gathered together to eat my flesh and drink my blood by a magic act of Catholic Priests.
While you believe the god of Catholicism changes his mind, The God does not. There are no plan Bs with the God in Whom is no shadow of turning.

I take God at His word as well. We receive His Body and Blood in with and under the bread and wine which remain bread and wine.
