The Catholic/Orthodox posters have the history, tradition and witness of the early church from the time of Christ to the present.

And

no Catholic will deny that doctrine most certainly develop

So you are agreeing that the Tradition is not static but changes and develops. Thus, you are agreeing that Tradition does not equal the oral tradition of the 1st century. Have I got it right so far?

When did your Church hold it's first council?

"Hammerin em" is too mild. That was a 500 foot McQuire shot.

You almost got it. The development of doctrine is based on the full deposit of faith, written and oral, as received from Christ and the Apostles which is from the 1st Century.

A point for Bass, you got me on that one. How about I phrase the question this way, “When did your Church hold its first post Apostolic Council?”
