Thanks for your kind msg.
I pray the same for you and yours.
History can be an interesting topic!
It's been a while since I've read good historical accounts of the whole sweep of the Roman edifice.
But I contend that the teachings HAVE changed. Sometimes dramatically for however many decades.
Of course, there are wonderful Roman belivers and I praise God for them. But, to paraphrase Christ . . . I don't pontificate about the ones doing it right in my congregation, denomination (if I were in one), or any other including the Roman group.
And, the double standard and denial and blindness are not righteousness enhancing qualities, traits, habits.
I don't understand--other than sociologically, psychologically and demonically--the blindness about one's organization's past.
Sanitized histories may be fine for certain contexts . . . but they don't wash as far as Heaven is concerned.

And I for one am counting on not being held accountable for the sins of those who went before me.
