Rudiments of the Catholic Church take shape in 250 A.D. when the Lapsii (Idol Worshippers) are accepted into churches by some.
Tired of having their faith & baptism rejected by the Cathari, and seeking relief from persecution the Lapsii submit to Emperor Constantine in 325 A.D.
Gregory organizes the Catholic Church as we know at the end of the 6th Century.

Are you part of the hidden Cathar remnant?
Do you believe that the material world is evil?
That the Resurrection does not involve the "carnal husk" of the material body?
Do you believe that Marriage is a sacrilege and blasphemy?
That procreation is wicked?
That only the Consolamenti Perfecti absolute vegetarian celibates will trully enter the Kingdom of Heaven and the rest of us will be reincarnated according to our deeds?
Do you believe in the Two Gods and swear to follow only the Good God and not the Evil God , the creator of matter and the imprisoner of souls who is worshipped by the Jews and Catholics and the Trinitarian deluded slaves?
The Cathar Albigensian and the Italian Patarini and perhaps the Bosnian Bogimili were Christo-Gnostic Neo-Manichees who rejected the nIncarnation and Bodily resurrection of Christ
Check out what the Cathars really believed. The Yellow Cross is a good and non Catholic source book.
The Catholic Church goes back to Jesus who founded it on Peter,Who shed His blood for her and Who poured His Spirit on her a Pentecost.
Catharoi means the Pure Ones and they were pure in their eyes because they were rejecting the material world If you believe what the Cathars believed you are not a Christian,even though they called themselves the True Christians and the Elect( the chosen perfect ones)
I applaud the Ancient Catholic Church for forgiving and absolving the Repentant Lapsed( after testing their resolve and commitment with often long penances) since she was putting into practice Jesus teachings on forgiveness 70x7 times.

The rudiments of the Catholic church took shape right around Pentecost, about 30 AD, courtesy of Jesus and the Holy Spirit.
Unless your church is the Catholic church, your name is a mistake.
