. The “Church” is a mystic body, whose members are indiscernable, thus not governable.

Certainly. I see that you still making that argument that it is right and good to make it all up as you go along. You may wish to reread St. Paul who especially pounds home the principle that Christianity is what the Apostles teach, not what any eunuch happens to wander by.

.
I agree fully on that, and eventually we may even be able to either affirm or correct what all of the gospels and epistles originally said in the Hebrew language that most of them were obviously written in.

That does appear to be the basic answer - either Apostolic Succession, or whatever I think my prayers lead me to. Christmas is good, or it is pagan. Easter is good, or it is pagan. Venerating the Cross is pious or pagan, it all depends.

Merry Christmas my FRiend, May our Lord in His Mother’s arms this blessed Christmas guard and guide you and yours throught the ages.
