The Vatican set itself on a collision course
with other Christian faiths Tuesday, reaffirming the primacy of the Roman
Catholic Church in a corrective document which it said was designed to clear up
recent "erroneous" doctrine.
The document's central claim, that only the
Catholic Church is "the one true Church of Christ", is likely to revive a debate
which has dogged the Vatican's relationship with rival Christian denominations
for decades.
Strangely silent on this challenge have been the Protestant, Mormon, Jewish and Muslim Popes -- maybe they have something to hide? What, those groups don't have an infallible leader who speaks directly to the creator of the universe? Then I guess we know now who Yahweh likes better don't we?
