Tell me how if, Christians living in the first 5 or 6 centuries after Christ believed the same things that Christians believed through the Dark Ages. Christians in the apostolic age and the next few generations thereafter didn't believe what the current RC church today believes. In fact, the early RC church doesn't believe the same things that the current RC church believes. Most honest catholics will admit at least the second statement.

Yeesh! I am sorry, 95% of what the early Christians believed. Maybe 94.27%
Lemme guess, the Dark Ages didn't end until the prophet Martin Luther came along and shredded 7 books of the Bible because he didn't like indulgences very much. And all was peaceful again. Until the Anglicans started starving the Irish Catholics to death.

Tell us, Iowegian, what does the Church teach today that it didn't teach at the beginning ? Ref.,Please.
Of course, over the centuries, certain things were defined as they became controversial .the Doctrines were defined to close down arguement .
