Do you ever wonder what things would be like today... if your wish for the Church to never have existed would have been granted? What the state of Christianity would be in today, if it even still existed?

Do you not at all see the irony of your line of questioning?

Catholicism has been divided since about 1,000 AD when the EO and Rome parted ways.

Homosexuality has been an ongoing problem within Catholicism for easily 1,000 years. Check out St. Peter Damian and his Book of Gomorrah.

The last several decades has seen the exposure of the depths of pedophilia and sexual exploitation of children world wide within the Catholic ranks.

Even recently, the Vatican has hosted cocaine fueled homosexual orgies.

You all have a flaming Marxist as your pope, who got installed into office by your College of Cardinals, which reveals them to be just as bad.

And then you have the chutzpah to question where Christianity would be without Catholicism as if Catholicism has been any kind of example of what a church should be?

The Crusades aside, without Catholicism, likely Christianity would be in a far better place than it is right now.

Christianity would be in a far better place than it is right now.

Really...so what would kind of Christian would you be then? A follower of those crazy Corinthians? Or a Galatian?
Maybe a Gnostic? A Montanist?
A follower of Arian?
would you be a Works saving Pelagian? Or Nestorian?

Sadly, you could not be a DIY Protestant, because without Rome... there is no 16th century Re(De)formation... So what kind of "christian" would you be? Just the same, I would bet...lol

But ahh yes...
Who can forget those Cocaine fueled sex orgies and nambla sleepover romps in the Vatican...
That's! where Charles Martel and Charlemagne got all that energy from...!
For you objectivity goes out the window, and lacking historical understanding, even such a simple hypothetical is beyond comprehension for you.

Its similar to trying to get an Atheist to objectively reason to see what a western society would be like for them to live in - without the foundation of Christian values.
They answer, "Well it would be just the same, but without God and Churches. It would be alot better, and more peaceful".
Yeah sure..., it would be just the same, or better...lol
