St Augustin on the Catholic Church: https://www.azquotes.com/author/663-Saint_Augustine/tag/church I think you will be disappointed in your “protestant.” I am sure similar quotes can be found by each of the other Catholics you (Colt1851Navy) think are Protestant, but I must go and do some IRL work!

Thank you for making the point regarding Sola Scriptura. Both Protestants and Catholics can find quotes from the early church fathers for and against each "side". Likewise, if we're honest, there are things some of them believed that neither RCC'ers nor Protestants today believe (i.e. some of them believed in instantaneous creation, not taking even 7 days). And if us Protestants are honest, there are problems some of us have with a few of the teachings of the early reformers.

So how do we know what to believe? Answer: What we know to be written by the apostles: SCRIPTURE!!!

To: Tell It Right

You might be interested in a video by Gary Habermas, The Resurrection Argument That Changed a Generation of Scholars, found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ay_Db4RwZ_M&t=93s&ab_channel=TheVeritasForum

He asserts that authentic, best-practice history strongly supports the resurrection of Jesus
