So prove that the apostles taught it just as the Catholic Church does. The assumption of Mary would be a good start since Catholics are obliged to believe it.

The proof is simply the unbroken line of teaching all the way back to the Apostles. You reject this... so there you go.

As for the teaching on the Assumption... Why stop there? Have fun.

You haven't yet proven that what the Catholic Church teaches today is the same as what the apostles taught. Are you simply going on faith in the men of the Catholic Church?

You cannot prove that the preaching of the Gospel of Jesus Christ was done ONLY through the auspices of the RCC.

You may and do CLAIM this, but CANNOT prove that there were not others Christians, some of whom fled for their lives from the Catholic hierarchy, who brought the Good News about the Lord Jesus Christ to different parts of the world in spite of the RCC efforts to quash the Gospel knowledge to the common people.
