What is your real question? 41,000 is certainly MORE than 35,000. 3,000 - 8,000 is certainly thousands.
What is your point Mr. Murphy?
My point is that there are certainly THOUSANDS even TENS OF THOUSANDS of ‘Christian’ churches you can choose if you do not want to follow the Catholic Church.
What exactly is your point?
My point is that your argument is now in backpedalling mode. Inexactness exposes the illegitimacy of the argument. I've done my homework and am very familiar with the sources behind the "thousands of denominations" argument. I can name those sources, I can quote the standards used to arrive at those numbers. What is the conclusion alleged from "proving" there are "thousands"?
If your intent is to claim that "there are certainly THOUSANDS even TENS OF THOUSANDS of ‘Christian’ churches you can choose if you do not want to follow the Catholic Church", then I can provide direct quotes, using the very same sources, that conclude that there CERTAINLY THOUSANDS even TENS OF THOUSANDS of 'Catholic' churches to choose from if you do.. Any time a Catholic apologist claims the one without acknowledging both is being lazy at best, and deliberately slanderous at worst.
