[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] The Roman Catholics, were not "Roman" until they broke away from the Orthodox Eastern Catholics. There were many independent groups before during and after Nicea. [/quote] Roman Catholics do believe that they - along with their Orthodox brethern - are the original Christians. That Peter was the first head of the Church "the rock upon which the Church was built" and that the leadership of the Church has been a continuous since him. (It's also why Orthodox Catholics are generally the only ones other than Roman Catholics who are allowed to receive communion at a Catholic Mass.) Of course, there were other people who also followed Christ, 2000 years ago and now, who are also Christians, but the faith of the Catholic Church is that it is an unbroken (if extraordinarily messy and human!) chain from Jesus to Peter to the Church today.[/quote]
