Oh, please.....without the Catholic church you wouldn't even know who Jesus Christ was. For 1,600 years, the church carried the message of Christ to the world and you think that somewhere in the 16th century the truth of Christianity came out of the woodwork??????
Luther, Wesley, Calvin, Henry VIII, Zwingley et al knew of Christ because the Catholic church had taught them about Him!!!
Oh no! They were the ones who actually survived the period when the RCC was killing Christians.

LOL The actually learned about the true Jesus when they got their hands on the true scripture after the RCC had corrupted and even kept out of the hands of the masses any access to the written word.
