I was on a really long flight the other day and contemplated the Papist faith.

If you consider the whole Mary heresy it is amazing how one false piece of doctrine leads to another and another. Kind of like a person who lies, and needs to add other lies to try to hold the original story together.

Check your Bible again. It had episcopoi (bishops), presbuteroi (priests) and deaconoi (deacons). The Mass is the name given today for the Breaking of the Bread. Since Catholics have no idols I will pass over this one. Baptism, Confirmation, Eucharist, Penance ("whose sins you forgive …"), Marriage, Anointing of the Sick and Holy Orders (episcopoi, presbuteroi and deaconoi) are all attested in the Bible. See Acts 1 for apostolic succession.
