Any moron with a basic knowledge of Christian history knows that the 
Catholic church was not the "ONLY" form of Christianity until Martin 
Luther broke from the church, nor is it "basic" Christianity, and it most 
certainly was not the first sect of Christianity.  This honor goes to the 
Jeruselem Church, alledgedly founded by Peter and James (the brother of 
Jesus), the church that Paul broke ties with due to his teaching the 
abrogation of the Torah.

Not to mention the Gnostic Ebionites, founded by Cerinthus, which also 
predate the formation of the Catholic church.  They were consequently 
persecuted out of existence by the Catholic church, an eradication that 
didn't occur until the tenth century, as is evident from the records of 
Saadia, a Jewish philosopher.

There were so many (mostly quibbling) sects of Christianity in the first 
century, that anybody that says that the Catholic church was the only 
sect of Christianity until Martin Luther doesn't even have a firm grasp 
of the New Testament, much less Christian history in general.

Now go ahead and bombard me with insults, but that will not change 
history and your ignorance of it.  I know I had said I wasn't going to 
correspond with you any more, but when somebody shows such a gross 
ignorance of a subject, that is implicit taunting in its own way.
