In light of the recent posts stressing unity over divisiveness, I have to ask, what about this thread? It is all about the Catholic claim that only its church is a legitimate one and is alone “Christ’s church.” And it has given rise to comments such as one by the article’s poster:

To: DungeonMaster
“The “Church” is the body of all Born Again Christians and has nothing to do with any denomination”.
The Church is the Catholic Church. The Orthodox can also call themselves members of the Church of Christ because of apostolic succession and sharing the same sacraments as Catholics. Not so for protestant sects. That ended with the heretics breaking away 500 years ago. They are members of faith communities. I’m right, you’re wrong, end of discussion.

That’s why I have refrained from commenting on this thread it was obvious baiting or they would have made it a caucus thread
