" Odd how fingers always point towards the "Roman Church", whereas no one ever speaks of the Orthodox Church"

That's cause we're a stealth Church! :) I suspect they always talk about you guys because in some strange way they think you actually care what they think. They know we couldn't care less what they think!

Lol ... you're probably right. Here's the downside to recognizing only one successor to Peter. The pope becomes the immovable target against which everyone can shoot their barbs. You're decidedly better off with several Patriarchs than one Pope.

LOL.

I figure that a demon possessing human flesh speaks in Latin to hurt Jesus' feelings. After all, it was Roman soldiers that tortured and molested Him.

Such fallen societies that point toward the "Roman Church" for their attacks focus directly at those they intend to hurt emotionally and psychologically. There's nothing in their arguments to substantiate a reasonable argument. It's just plain mean spirited.

Some cardiologist figure that Jesus ultimately died of heart failure. The dogged attacks of fallen Catholics and fallen Catholic cultures (like that which resides in England), are trying to break the Church's heart the way a naughty daughter rebelliously marries her father's worst enemy.

I've been told by an English ally that a typical rebellious naughty British daughter will get back at her dad by marrying an Australian. It's a good thing that Sidney has a great Catholic Bishop. There's a sly sense of comedy in God's Divine Justice...isn't there?

I'm glad the two lungs can agree upon the importance of Our Lady, whom all generations shall call blessed.
