Put another way, it is only through religion that we can come to spirituality, the full vigor and breath of life.

St. Paul describes liturgy in his letters, "the cup of blessing which we bless..." - that's straight out of the Passover meal liturgy, which is the precursor to the Mass. I guess you haven't read the Pauline letters?
