And ultimately all Protestantism has is its illogic.

No we simply don't take passages meant for one thing and build an entire doctrine for something completely different. Still ready to marry your sister in law if circumstance requires by the laws?

Your church uses natural timing to space of children which still means LIMITING THEM no matter what you want to call it. SOME in Protestants use Non Aborting barrier methods wheere no fertilization ever occurs. Same difference same results except some papal hierarchy approved yours so it's called good inside your church. Most churches Catholic and Protestant do not observe Jewish Law today. There were efforts in the very early days following Christ to once again fall under them and place them upon the Gentile and new Jewish believers alike as Peter was being persuaded to do by the Jewish leaders but it was addressed.

Today we observe The Lords Commandments and His teachings and the much fewer laws set by ones like Paul, Peter, John, etc for believers in the "churches" for our conduct in and out of church including rules inside a marriage relationship. For many that suffices and is enough to abide in. For other churches they need volumes upon volumes of more of mans rules "Much like the laws" with some church figureheads holding them over their heads all their lives.

He whom The Son sets free is free indeed.

The documented history of Passover Seder meals also highlights the symbolic nature of the matzo and wine used therein. This context, too, calls for a symbolic meaning of the Lord’s Supper elements. There’s so much Judaiphobia in the church that it has forgotten its roots.

I wouldn’t call this “illogic.” All the signs are screaming, symbol! symbol! symbol!

At best the R.C. take is confused. At worst it’s idolatry.
