Show me the scripture, Catholic priests defending the priesthood and apostolic succession means not one thing..
Show us where Jesus gave instructions, permission or authority to the apostles to pass on the gifts and authority He gave to them for the founding of the church

It's pervasive throughout the NT and foreshadowed in the OT -- for those who have the eyes to see and ears to hear!

You have beaten that horse to death. Show me the scripture that says that Scripture alone is to be the only source for the revealed Word of God. Until you can do that I don't think anyone other than the devoted anti-Catholics are going to pay you anymind when you either demand answers or offer Scriptural "proof".
