The only reason someone would ask such a question is because they are uncertain of their own position on the subject.

That is a non sequitur. I believe the Nicene Creed, which says: "We believe in one, holy, catholic, and apostolic Church".

But you seem not to believe that. You seem to believe that Christ has many brides. Am I misunderstanding you?

Obviously.

The unity of the Church is that unity of the Spirit. Its diversity includes anything that is not out of harmony with that spiritual unity.

I don’t think the RCC really understands the distinction between the church visible and invisible.
