That recent article, I’m sure you read, posits that the Church could go the way of Judaism; the Orthodox, the Reformed and I forget at the moment, the third divide.
This prediction seems to make the most sense to me, in the long term.
The Catholics could be or would be either Orthodox, Traditional, and Progressive.
It seems doubtful that the Catholic Church as a whole would simply devolve into one more Protestant denomination. No, the true Church will always be, even as Benedict XVI suggested- a smaller, but more devout Church. (something like that.) I would call that remnant Church, THE Church, but “Orthodox” might be it’s name. What do you think?
There can only be one way to be Catholic. One is either Catholic or not Catholic. For example, there are the Old Catholics, but hey are not Catholic.
To posit that the Holy Faith would be broken down into legitimate branches is totally absurd and evil. I would strongly suggest that you do not listen to such ideas.
