The catholic church has again stated that Protestant, Orthodox and other churches are not true churches, as they do not follow catholic doctrine or recognise the pope as head of all christians! What insulting crap!
As a member of the Ancient Church of The East, i find this grossly insulting. We are Aramaic speakers(Assyrians) whose church was founded in AD78, LONG before there was any christianity in Rome, and long before there was any organised WESTERN church, or catholocism. Thats Fact, and in itself blows their argument!
In addition, the Orthodox and coptic churches in Syria, Egypt Armenia etc have traditions that go bah before the Roman/Western church existed.
Essentially this is a symptom of the Vatican's thirst for power.
The catholic church is neither historically, chronologically, theologically or morally correct in its assertions.
What say you? Are they right? Are they Wrong? Are they insulting?
