We Catholics are “Catholic” so all you all define yourselves in this discussions as not Catholic, but none of you ever clearly say I go to this particular protestant ecclesial community among the thousands available.

CT, you discredit yourself by repeating the debunked "thousands available" argument.

Prove it? who has debunked it? You telling me there are not thousands of protestant groups. Lets understand what I am saying, a Church in terms of ecclesiology is united in communion with each other. For Catholics, that is a Bishop or Patriarch [Eastern Catholic Churches] that are in union with the Bishop of Rome.

So all these independent dispensationalist groups are not 100% aligned at the Confessional level. The Lutheran Missouri Synod and all their local churches are 1 Church. The ELCA Lutheran Confession is 1 church. The PCUSA Presbyterians are 1 church. The Orthodox Presbyterians are different church. I can go on, and on, and on, and on, but I have made my point.

So no I did not discredit myself.
