Ah yes, revisionist history. I get it. This is strange. I never thought that any serious Anglicans/Episcopalians would do apologetics like the fundies I encounter in the Bible Belt.
I know. Rome has broken with everyone else. It wasn't Henry VIII's sexual perversions, nor Martin Luthers. It was Rome. All Rome. Not Zwingli's or Calvin's political career ambitions. It is always Rome's fault. The Pope is the cause of 20,000 different "Christian" churches.
By the way, "catholic" also means "in keeping with the whole" of the Faith. Thanks for the lesson though.
Thanks also for affirming that St. Patrick, just because he was of British descent (although some claim he was Italian), would have never have claimed to have been from the Church of England.
I am not interested in discussing things with people who are historical revisionists so they can be their own Pope in matters of faith and morals. Let me guess... You think Rome's teaching on artificial contraception is wrong? So predictable...
Almost forgot: What about Clementine?
How does this thread relate to what "rome" teaches?? We aren't Catholic, so it doesn't matter one whit what Rome comes up with.
