The claim that the UKGCC is not in unity with the Catholic Church is not true.

Who made that claim?

You did in 353.

The claim that the UKGCC is considered not good enough to be Catholic is not true.

Who made that claim as well?

You did in 403.

You can't know that unless you've personally asked every single Roman Catholic on the planet. Did you? You can't know that unless you've personally asked every single Roman Catholic on the planet. Did you?

Catholics do consider the Ukrainian Greek Catholics to be real Catholics.

I didn't say that the RCC doesn't consider the UCC in unity with them.

I said that the RC's and the UC's don't consider each other *real* Catholics. It isn't a matter of the official church position being that of unity, it's a matter of the lay Catholics who are not unified.

Do try some reading comprehension lessons.

Maybe the ones YOU know. It's not an opinion that is universally held.

Sure they are...They don't bow down to your popes...They don't pray to Mary, but they are real Catholics...

They claim THEY can trace their Bishops back to the Apostles just like your religion does...Sounds like the Roman Catholic religion was Greek Orthodox before it split off and became what it is...

To me, it sounds like Hamas and Hizbollah fighting over which one of them owns Israel...
