Agreed. But from these threads I have discerned (maybe wrongly) that one of the reasons the catholic church believes they are "the" Chruch is becasue the are "united" in their beliefs. That one of the reasons they can point fingers at the "prostestants" and say they are wrong is because there are so many different denominations. I was just refuting that argument by showing that the catholics are no more united then the protestants,
Picture this, if you will ... this is hypothetical, btw ... not a slam toward the Baptist faith. A Catholic Church has divisions within itself (among parishoners), and a Baptist Church has divisions among it's people. BUT ... the Baptist faith itself has many divisions. Which is more united? I'd still say that the CC is the more united, because if you look at the example I just laid out, you're looking at divisions among people in one faith as opposed to divisions among people of one division of another.
Now that I got that out of the way ... There is probably no monopoly by any faith on the amount of followers that don't adhere 100% to the teachings of the faith. Which takes me back to my previous post...
