“...who brcsme known as Catholics....”

I assume that says, “who became known as Catholics....”

I suspect they were long departed for a much better place before a single Christian was ever referred to as Catholic.

possibly departed....early 100's is when Catholic was first used, but it certainly became retroactive to the earliest Christians.
