How bizarre can a statement become? GOD destroyed the Jewish priesthood in 70AD? The Roman Church revived the Jewish priesthood a couple hundred years later?

Ahh Bizarre but true.. God destroyed the temple, the animal sacrifices, and the jewish priesthood.. funny huh, that Rome destroyed the temple and the Jewish priesthood forever.. and then the same pagan Rome brought the priesthood and sacrifices back ....

That assumes that
- Rome is pagan;
- the priesthood of the Church is or claims to be the same as the priesthood (which one? there were several) of the Jews;
- that the sacrifice of the Mass is the same as the sacrifices of the Jews.

It may make you feel good to say so, but it is not persuasive.

Are you seriously equating Imperial Rome with the Catholic Church? Do you know nothing of history?
