A refutation of Sola Scriptura

Bob says:
If the Real Presence is true it leads to the conclusion that Jesus has another nature i.e. bread and wine. 
That is a misunderstanding of the Catholic Doctrine. Transubstantiation means that the bread and wine are no longer there. Only the appearance. Jesus is there present Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity. 
I repeat, NO BREAD AND WINE. The bread and wine are gone. 
The other problem is that the bread and wine have no characteristics of deity.
No one claims that bread and wine are deities. It is a straw man argument which you are making up.
Oh, you asked me a question which I had no opportunity to answer. You also asked:
You brought up this passage as a refutation of Sola Scriptura–”Let’s compare. You preach the Bible alone, which is the doctrine of “Sola Scriptura”. What does Scripture truly say?
2 Thessalonians 2:15King James Version (KJV)15 Therefore, brethren, stand fast, and hold the traditions which ye have been taught, whether by word, or our epistle.”
Let me ask you: What traditions is Paul referring to here? 
All the Traditions. Including the ones that Protestants refuse to believe.
Surely he is not referring to
Yes, he is.
the Marian dogmas, 
The Queenship of Mary-Rev 12:1
a celibate leaderships
1 Cor 7:32-33
or purgatory
1 Cor 3:15
because these things were unknown in the NT and for centuries. 
They were taught by the Apostles. The reason you don’t recognize them in the NT is because you discarded many of the Traditions of Jesus Christ.
So what “traditions” is Paul referring to?
All of them. Including the ones that Protestants disregarded and cast aside.
Sincerely,

De Maria
