It's called record keeping, nothing amazing about it at all. The Queen of England can trace her heritage directly to the first Norman king in the 9th century, William the Conqueror. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

| petroglyph Member since: Aug 3, 2014 Threads: 25 Posts: 6227 | So obviously not a bloodline then, seeing as how the bishops and Pope's are not paternal fathers? The last official act of any government is to loot the treasury. GW |

You just can't prove Jesus ever existed, there's the rub. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Definitely not a bloodline :) “It is with the smallest brushes that the artist paints the most exquisitely beautiful pictures.” ( |

On your side (assuming a lot of bad assumptions). How about on the Orthodox side? Donald Trump is a one-term LOSER |

| FrGamble Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 67 Posts: 7596 | I think the Orthodox like to trace their succession to St. Andrew the first disciple. Does it frustrate you that such a succession exists without these assumptions you claim? I admit it is pretty amazing and speaks volumes about the connection of the Catholic Church to Jesus Christ Himself which no other Church can claim. “It is with the smallest brushes that the artist paints the most exquisitely beautiful pictures.” ( |

It bothers me that you think it's complete, or that it means anything.
See? No other churches have hierarchies or leaders or keep track. So what's the big deal? Donald Trump is a one-term LOSER |

It bothers me that FrG uses the word 'amazing' so often that it's lost all meaning. Everything can't be amazing, he's trying way too hard to convince himself that his ego bloated misogynistic failing Church is really something wonderful. It's not working. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |
