Asinine question and not a realistic conclusion...
Christ established a church, within a few years of its establishment it was centered in Rome, it became known as Catholic....or universal, that church, established by Christ grew, in Rome to become the Roman Catholic Church....there was NEVER a break in continuity, and there was NEVER a break in the authority which Christ gave to His apostles...When Christ said "THIS IS MY BODY", He meant it and gave His followers the power to do the same. Catholics still have the Eucharist, those who can't figure it out, don't....very sad.
Within "a few years"?
Not even withing a few centuries, and not even now, more actually.
The Latin Church is not, and never was supra-set "the" Church, one and alone.
History is not on the side of your specious claims, terycarl.
Sorry, you lose again.
And I'm sorry that you cannot see it, no matter how many times it has been shown to you that ----your assumptions and suppositions are, as you remarked towards another here (and do put your own limited opinions) rather asinine.
To repeat: it's just you saying it. And that ain't worth a hoot.
"Asinine?"
I KNEW you couldn't substantiate your declarations - and you've proved me right.
Sigh...
Seven Catholic churches; so famous, so adored.
All gone now except for rubble...
