That was a joke, but obviously PP didn't get it.

Funny, I bet you defend Islam, which does most of the things you accuse Catholics of and then some. It's just that in your faux liberal circles, the Catholic church is just a more fashionable target.

What is this supposed to be, an Episcopalian bash? Are you questioning the legitimacy of the Episcopalian faith?
No, I think that PP is just pointing out a historical fact. But some others on here hate Catholics so much that I am sure that "Catholic Light" is also fair game for them. Oh, but they let everyone have Communion, so at least they are not "rude."
I'm guessing the comment came fom a Catholic trying to show that the Catholic church is more legit because Jesus himself started it and not some King who wanted a divorce.
Of course, Jesus lived and died a Jew, before there was any such thing as a "church."

You have to remember until the schism of 1054 there was only one true holy catholic and apostolic church.

It's easy to know what this means without googling. "You are Peter and upon this rock I will build my church". Catholics like to use it to show that their church was founded by Jesus himself.
I wonder why Jesus allowed all those other Christian churches to form?
