"So what do you suppose that says?"

That you are talking out your back passage!

Of course its an adjective you numbskull - "Catholic" is an adjective meaning universal in both time and space.

That is one of the marks that distinguishes the Church from all fake copies.

That I'm talking out my back passage. You try to pass off an adjective as a name - Lower case use of an adjective does not equate to uppercase use of a Name. If one were to infer that Theodosius drew from this odd copy presuming to be from ignatius as inspiration, it lends no creedance to earlier usage. This is akin to calling desktop Pcs Abacuses and then trying to say desktop Pc's have been around for thousands of years. But then backward application of terms in pretense of garnering support for ideas is nothing new. Try looking up when the term Pope came about. It was fraudulently backwardly applied after the term and office was created. Talk about desparation.

If you want to argue something, stay on point. catholic is an adjective and was used only as an adjective in the passage you cite. If it had been used as a proper name, then you'd have something by way of citation. That you can't differentiate between the two speaks for your intellectual prowess or integrity - you pick which.
