The comment got through because it was civil.

Christ was a Priest, made so by his Father before time, destined to reconcile God to Man, and to leave a Church with a priesthood in the order of Melchizedek. As Priest He offered Himself as a Sacrifice to the Father.

That priesthood, in its fullness in the bishops, holds true authority as Christ founded a hierarchical Church.

In the Eucharist the altar, the church, the accoutrements, and vestments represent the best we have - be it St Peter's Basilica or a plain table at mess - as the anamnesis of the one Sacrifice is made present in our time and we are lifted to the heavenly realm.
