You seem to be having trouble stating the Plain Historical Truth (tm) today. Here's some plain historical truth for you: the Catholic Church, established by Jesus Christ, has successfully defended the true faith against all manner of heresies, in spite of massive persecution, for almost 2000 years.
I consider it rather difficult to defend anything against anything several hundred years before one's existence.
BTW, Historical revisionism is not the exclusive property of the Romanist Church any more than it is of any other group.
I still consider it rather cheeky so many centuries before Marx to co-opt the MORE EQUAL THAN OTHERS gig vis a vis the other Christian leaders around the Mediteranian. But actually, it was more cheeky against Our Lord and His standard of being servant of all vs elitist rulers over all.
He was rather clear to the pharisees how He felt about THAT! LOL.
