“ONE Catholic Church.”

This is a declaration, but without evidence.

Of course, I know you believe this. But since you are posting to someone who doesn’t believe it at all, it would have been nice if you had included evidence you found compelling and believed I would as well. It probably wouldn’t have persuaded me, since I’ve studied the Scriptures. Maybe you realize that. Still, I enjoy a good civil examination of ideas anytime.

Hundreds of millions of Christian believers around the world understand that the RC denominations (numbering in the millions as each makes their own belief set) and know that Christ has one church, made up of all believers of all times who comprise the bride of Christ - and this, regardless of which gathering they worship and fellowship with here on earth.

Best to you this Thanksgiving. May you and all choose to be part of the Body and Bride of the Savior.
