The church teaches that its founder is Jesus Christ, who appointed the twelve Apostles to continue his work as the Church’s earliest bishops.[3] Catholic belief holds that the Church “is the continuing presence of Jesus on earth”

This idea could make for a good discussion, should we take it to it's own thread?

[To your response]If this is true, then I should be able to see a continuation of the original teachings of the Apostles, more of God's interaction with the Church as it was originally, and an improvement of the members of the church over time, correct?

Sure. Create the thread and ping me.

It would be an interesting conversation and good exercise of the mind.

I won’t attack your religion but, I do ask “what is your religion?”.
