The priest speaks and lo! Christ, the eternal and omnipotent God, bows his head in humble obedience to the priest’s command

Hmmm. According to this blasphemy, Christ cannot be omnipotent if he obeys a human (created being) priest.

I'm with you: I'd be interested to know if Roman Catholics believe this heretical crap.

If we follow catholic logic (?) they have to. All priests are supposed to be able to trace a path back to Peter they claim.

It's supposed to be passed down.

Of course they believe it, and will rationalize that God agreed to bow his head in humble obedience to the priest’s command. Of course, nowhere is seen in Scripture, for nowhere in the life of the church is any NT pastor,

1. distinctively titled "priest;"

2. said/shown to distinctively engage in any sacerdotal function;

3. said/shown to offer the Lord's supper as a sacrifice for sin, or teach that it is;

4. charged with offering the Lord's supper as a sacrifice for sin

5. instructed in offering the Lord's supper as a sacrifice for sin as a unique pastoral function

6. said/shown to officiate at the Lord's supper as essential;

7. said/shown to even distribute food as part of his ordained function;

8. shown to even manifestly describe the Lord's supper more than 2 or 3 times;

9. shown to teach that the Lord's supper is "the source and summit of the Christian life" "in which our redemption is accomplished," as really being the Lord's body and blood, the "bread of angels," etc.;

10. shown to teach that eating the Lord's supper coveys spiritual life

I used to believe it, but now, I am an ex Catholic, so I don't accept it anymore. Some people think we can't be ex Catholics. I have news for them. We most assuredly can.
