what I always find funny about protestants is that they say the eucharist as metaphorical, but then take the book of revelations at face value.

this happens everywhere too

First, it's "Revelation."
Second, that applies to some Protestants, but not enough to make such a broad generalization. Third, do Catholics not believe Revelation? Then that makes you a hypocrite in either case.

Yep, humans are sinful with inconsistencies that pop up everywhere. It's why it's important to have a sound biblical hermeneutic so that you're less likely to go off the rails.

I don't subscribe to a literal, chronological view of Revelation, FYI. It's apocalyptic literature and that sort of literature isn't meant to be taken at face value, literally. It's symbolic.
