And here, up to the last page, I thought the perpetrators of the offences mentioned in the first place were going to be ignored. Ahhh, too bad. Was nice to see one talking to thin air for a while though. Not even dignified with a response. Was nice while it lasted though.

Nope.... Catholic and Orthodox are separate but equal in my opinion.

So either the Catholic Church or Orthodox church is the true church, or the apostasy did happen to one of them.... or was it both? Dueling apostasies? I guess the Orthodox faith is apostate by relatation.... that it?

or both of you can be wrong.

Peter was not really the rock and the restoration referred to another church

Yes, the Eastern Orthodox Catholic Church.

If the apostasy occurred, it doesn't follow that a restorationist church is true. It may be that the restoration will not occur, or that it will but has not yet occurred. What was the true church in 1650?

Not to say that all EC do it . . . . just that many of them do . . . and when they do, they almost always zero in on Mormons.

Why is that? I'd like to hear opinions from anybody on the subject. Why not Buddhism? Judaism? Or Islam?

Why do you think it's so important for so many EC to argue with Mormons?
Because they've been brainwashed by their pastors, who are scared that their members will convert over to Mormonism. If people convert, the pastors lose their paychecks, and they wouldn't want that now, would they?

Short and to the point.

The catholic church claims apostolic succession by claiming peter was the first pope, isn't that correcT?

Or, none of it was true to begin with and, therefore, none of the churches are right.
