>>The proof is simply the unbroken line of teaching all the way back to the Apostles.<<

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?

Men such as St Polykarp (direct disciple of St John), St Irenaeus, St Thomas Aquinas, St Augustine, St John Chrysostom, St Athanasius, St Francis of Assisi, Pope St Gregory, St Ambrose, et al? Yes.

Unless you can demonstrate their humility and deep devotion to the truths of the Church, you will have a hard time taking me from their tutelage.
