So you are satisfied that Jesus intended to found 38,000 churches, all with different interpretations of the Bible, which didn’t exist as it does now? The only thing that the many protestant churches agree on is their rejection of the Church’s authority. You know of course that most of the Bishops in the 4th century were Arians who denied the divinity of Jesus. So quoting various church fathers proves very little. You would mostlikely deny the Real Presence in the Eucharist also. Ignatius of Antioch in 107 called the one Church Catholic while on his way to be martyred. He was a disciple of John and Polycarp

Are you a politician?

We see that you didn’t address the content of the post you responded to; but went off on a tangent of your own choosing.

How do you Catholics like Francis' authority?

“Ignatius of Antioch in 107 called the one Church Catholic”

Post a reference link to show the validity of that statement.
