Eucharist is a greek word that literally means "celebration". All Christian tradition is derived from the early church which regularly met to celebrate the resurrection of Christ. The last supper was an important turning point for the apostles, wherein Jesus charged his disciples to remember him through the partaking of his body and blood. This feast was re-enacted at Christian gatherings to commemorate that remembrance, as charged, and is with us today in the form of the liturgy of the Eucharist at mass. When you celebrate the life of Christ, you are participating in a a Eucharist (oh my!).
In the broadest sense, a vicar (from the Latin vicarius) is anyone acting "in the person of" or agent for a superior (compare "vicarious"). Peter was given the keys to the gates of heaven and charged with authority that whatever he held loosed upon earth would be loosed in heaven, and whatever he held bound on earth would be bound in heaven. This essentially means that in the absence of Christ, he is the the agent for Christ.
If the Church were to be frozen in time the moment Christ ascended into heaven, then you would not have ANY of the rich traditions Christians have today. So if you are upset about the traditions that the Catholics have observed, then you had better organize a good, old-fashioned book burning, and get rid of all of the teachings of martin Luther, get rid of all of your songs (Where is the "old rugged cross" mentioned int he Bible?) and while you're at it, burn your churches, because the ORIGINAL Christians met in secret in people's homes.
Be careful how absurd you want to get with this fundamentalism, because it can become more absurd than even you can stomach. Anyone who has seen an Islamic goat with diapers on it to prevent people from seeing it's nether regions can attest to how out of control some fundamentalist idiots can get.

They simply do not appear at all. Even if you look into the Greek text it is not there. The Eucharist is the Latin term for communion or breaking of bread which is mentioned in scriptures. Vicar of Christ is not mentioned because it is a Latin phrase that is used to justify the Pontiff. Vicar according to the Catholic Encyclopedia means, "instead of". Why would anyone want someone instead of Christ? This is not Biblical at all which is why you are having a tough time finding it. They weren't removed, they simply weren't there to begin with.

These phrases are not in the Bible, but the concepts are.
Vicar is a word that means one serving as a substitute. Shortly before Jesus ascended into heaven, he gave Peter the duty to feed His lambs. This made Peter the Vicar (serving as a substitute) of Christ. Since Jesus did not return before the death of Peter, this authority and responsibility has been handed down to successive people who are known as Popes.
"Eucharist" is a greek word that means thanksgiving. This is waht we do when we celebrate the sacrament known as Holy Eucharist - we are giving thanks for Jesus' death onthe cross which wiped away the punishment for our sins.
Neither the phrase nor the concept of "sola scriptura" is found in the Bible.

No one took them out of the Bible. They were never mentioned in the Bible to begin with. Then again neither was the Trinity.
Just because something is not mentioned specifically in Scripture does not mean it's false.

I have scoured the Bible for the word 'bible' and for Trinity and for rapture and for Incarnation. Darn, where are they??

While I disagree with the application of those titles ... "Trinity" is not found in the Bible. Neither is "particular redemption", both of which I hold to.
Lets get to the facts and not build straw men to burn them down, it will do us all a service.

No.
Because catholics are not saved and are not Christians. Catholics believe a false gospel of works that leads to eternal hell (Galatians 1).
The word "vicar" from Latin is referring to antichrist, and the "pope", who isn't in the Bible, certainly is an antichrist, leading up to the antichrist.

Perhaps those words were never in the Bible, and the question becomes who added them?
