Alas my friend, thus begun the foundation of the Catholic Church which got it's start a couple of centuries later.

And still a shred of documentation, after being asked for it 3 times. Can't say we are surprised.

I’ve posted parts of in several times.

Asked me 3 times (that’s badgering but you get a pass I guess) and ignored the answers.

I’ll send you some more from what ever sources from history where they are, secular AND spiritual.

You asked for secular only, so just ignore Biblical proof.

Actually we do have evidence from the NT of what the church was like. It's there if one reads it in context.

There is no support for the immaculate conception nor praying to Mary. There were no statutes of Mary. Paul had met with James, the brother of Christ.

The apostles were establishing churches where they could. Most of the early church met in homes.

Paul's letters were being circulated amongst the churches.

All were being led by the Holy Spirit.
