Of course this all went through the window when Constantine made Catholicism an organized religion.


That is a very typical non-conformist/protestant myth that history does not bear out. Constantine merely made Christianity legal, and while administration of the Church became more visibly organized the essence of the Catholic faith was unchanged until later Roman (and some might say unlawful) councils.

So in sum, in my opinion it is tradition and not holy tradition. I don't recognize your divine origin you supposedly see.


You are of course entitled to your own opinion, but that does not change the constant teaching of Christ's Church. As a Catholic, I am bound by the teaching of the Church founded by Jesus Christ (and I am not referring to the Roman, Orthodox, or Anglican churches, but the whole Catholic Church of Christ).

May God unite all who call on the name of Jesus Christ with a sincere heart.
