There is only one divine faith and that is the Catholic Church, founded by Jesus Christ. All others are Christian communities born out of the Reformation. They are not true churches, but ecclesial communities. Only one Christian Church was founded by Jesus Christ, and it’s the Catholic Church. Educate yourself with the history of Christianity and you will see the truth. God bless you.

You really need to get out more.

1)A thousand years before chrstianity, G-d had already founded a religion. And it wasn't some guy claiming to be G-d; it WAS G-d. Some three million people witnessed the Revelation, and begged Moses to act as an intermediary because they thought they were going to die from the experience.

2)The Eastern Orthodox Church is a product of the Reformation? The Coptic Church is a product of the Reformation? The Ethiopian Church is a product of the Reformation? The Syrian Jacobite Church is a product of the Reformation? The Armenian Church is a product of the Reformation? The Non-Ephesian (Nestorian) Churches are products of the Reformation?

Looks like Protestants aren't the only people who don't know their church history.

1. The Eastern Orthodox Church is CATHOLIC.

2. The Coptic Christians are an off-shoot of the Eastern Orthodox Christian Church (Catholic) and have been around since AD 42.

3. The Ethiopian Church was established in 1930 and is CATHOLIC church in full communion with the Holy See.

4. The Syrian Jacobite Church is part of the Syriac Orthodox Church and has been around since the middle of the first century.

5. The Armenian Church is part of the Oriental Orthodox Church and has been around since AD 301.

6. The Nestorian Church is part of Eastern Christianity and has been around for almost 2,000 years.

Not a one of the churches listed above have anything at all to do with the Reformation of the 16th Century. The Vatican recognizes these Christian churches as true churches, but they are defective because they do not recognize the primacy of the Pope. Their liturgy is very much Catholic.

Protestant denominations — called Christian Communities born out of the Reformation — are not true churches, but ecclesial communities.
