While one aspect of the church is the body of believers that share the same faith, one simple truth that Protestants deny, out of necessity, is the simple fact that Christ did establish a visible Church for our benefit. . That visible Church exists and subsists in what has come to be called the Catholic Church.

And by Catholic Church you mean the denomination of the Roman Catholic Church, not simple "universal" right? So if I check a concordance I will find Jesus saying something about establishing a "visible church" in Rome right? I will find something about a pope using that term, or holy see using that term, or apostalic succession using that term right? I will find something about new doctrines that are to come from Rome that are not mentioned in the bible at all right?

Lot’s of things not mentioned in the Bible, using scripture as the sole rule of faith jumps to mind. The Catholic Church regardless of where the See wound up, could have been Antioch , Ephesus or some other city, would still be the one Church established by Christ. He didn't abandon us to the winds of change.
