- Ya know, for a guy with a PhD, you don't know very much, do you? The word
- 'Catholic' means 'universal.' All persons who are members of the one,
- universal church are catholic. Lutherans are catholic. So are Orthodox
- (both Greek & Russian), Episcopalians, etc. You're being far to
- provincial, Dr. The Roman church has no valid claim on sole catholicity.
