Hard to believe the Catholic Church teaches that there will be a re-institution of Old Testament festivals, of which Temple sacrifices were an integral part.

Were any Protestants questioning this?

The harvest seasons can be classified as such: the first (Spring/Summer) gave grain, the second (Summer) gave grapes, and the third (Summer/Fall) gave olives, figs, and more.

WRONG!!!!! On at least FOUR things. 1) What you are calling the second feat (Pentecost) did NOT yield grapes. It yielded the wheat.

2) Pentecost is in late spring and as the name implies, it is 50 days after Passover. Passover occurs late winter or very early spring. So, Pentecost cannot occur in summer.

3) There is no summer feast. The feast after Pentecost is Tabernacles, or Sukkot.

4) Grapes do not ripen and are not ready for harvest until late summer.

Therefore, your whole argument lacks any credibility.
