And I still say that earthly worship congregations are too often full of themselves. Any claim to be an earthly organizationally unified body was dropped at the point of the Roman/Orthodox split. And the two sides of that split have mutual sentiments towards one another — that the other is the lesser and needs the one that is the essential which of CO-OURSE is themselves. The appearance of Protestants has given both of those something to sneer at, and they do (though Roman Catholics tend to sneer less).

The most genuinely pious of any Christian faith community scarcely bother themselves with these questions — it is mediocre churchmen in need of bolstered egos that do.

You’re entitled to your opinion....albeit false.

Believers are Christ-made one by one... The most genuinely pious of any Christian faith community scarcely bother themselves with these questions...

Two statements of yours that I agree with and have observed to be true.
