And I could show you 5, 10 maybe more Protestant churches that claim to be “based on biblical teaching only” that all have different beliefs and interpretations!
And when you talk of the history of the church, to me what you speak of is the history of the people of the church, who are not with out sin, not of the Catholic church itself. People in other churches are only human as well. The Catholic church has a much longer history then other Christian churches, and existed in different times with different standards of behavior. I bet if you showed church goers of just 100 years ago what
ALL of our places of worship find acceptable today, they’d be mortified!

If not mortified, severely stunned and puzzled by some of the practices therein.
