I would still like an RCC answer explaining how 1200 (nearly) continuous years of crusades, inquisitions, genocides, religious persecutions, torture, rape, pillage, sword, and blood do not represent an errant Church.

Before responsing, it would be helpful to know your understanding of that period in history. Please post references and links. Thank you.

Doesn’t really matter—parsing words and historical facts is back to the rubber edifice.

The summary in that paragraph is sufficient for the point.

The BRAZENLY OBVIOUS CONTRADICTIONS are inescapable.

Y’all simply refuse to deal with them.

While I am very interested in your reply, my understanding comes more from books than from net sources, and I haven't the time, nor the desire at this point to develop an online record of events. I will do so when I turn my efforts to it in the future, of that you can be sure. For the moment, I will refer you to Mr. Plaisted's work, as I had mentioned in #148.
