It's about Actions, Fruits and the message. Rome loses the argument on all three counts

Actions:  Who keep the flame of belief burning through all the bad times when Christianity's land of origin was overrun by slammies and those churchs died out?  .

Fruits:     Which church has spread the word to the most souls in S America, Africa, Asia, Europe, the world?  Which church has spread the most, saving he most souls.  The numbers game is NOT a game, it shows how many souls were saved.  The RCC believes in getting off it's butt and doing something, saving more souls instead of sitting back and having 'revivals' which consist of little more than anti-Catholic propaganda.

Message:   Which other church can state that it has and has spread the true message untouched and unchanged since the time of the apostles?

The Catholic church is NOT Rome, the Catholic church is the UNIVERSAL Church of God and I resent you confining it to Rome.

The Church then, wins on all counts.  All Apostates from the Universal Church LOSE on those counts.  Let's take the fundamentalists:

Actions:  Ha!

Fruits:  How many souls?  How many non-Christians have been converted by these? 

Message:  How many messages?  one per person?  Person A think Pastor B puts too much sugar in his coffee so A forms his own 'church' where he serves less sugar in the coffee.  That's the fundamentalists, like seed thrown on rocks, they have NO roots and get blown away

Hmmmm, I thought it was the Roman Catholic Church.

Repeating your claims doesn't sidestep the issue.
