I agree, but I'm looking at what the Bible commonly calls a Priest (which should be noted that Jesus is the final Priest being the ultimate interceeder between God and us, which my definition notes as a requirement of a Priest, so then there really shouldn't be another priest like the OT Priests after the gospels)
They seem pretty lame as fighters maybe we should challenge them to a dance off or a redemption game

Suddenly, Catholics v. Protestants thread!
I am not talking about T2 unless I am explicitly talking about T2. Also Mayhem is fine now somehow!

I'm not sure what you mean by "like the OT priests", but there is biblical justification for Priests after the Gospels:

But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his own possession, that you may proclaim the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light.
1 Peter 2:9

Also the Bible calls Jesus the high priest, not the only priest.
If you are reading this signature, thank a physicist.

It says Priesthood not Priest. What Peter saying is that we have been made pure by Christ and now have the ability to talk to God and pray to God without the need of offerings of physical items.
