Did you know that the Catholic Church is the oldest institution to exist in the Western world? The Catholic Church has a history that spans over two thousand years, and it began with none other than Jesus Christ himself. At least, that is what modern popes believe. But at first, there was just one church, and there was no division between Catholics, Protestants, Eastern Orthodox, and other branches of Christianity. Christians all over the known world were united, and together, they made their spirituality bloom. Their religion took over the lives of villagers, nobles, kings, queens, and even newly-arrived pagan armies that came to conquer Europe. This book strives to give a simplified answer to the complex question of the Catholic Church's existence. It deals with the topics of the foundation of the church, its legitimacy, papal supremacy, authority, and the church's right to dominate the spiritual lives of people. But to answer these philosophical questions, we have to dive into the history of the Catholic Church and touch on topics such as the existence of Jesus Christ, the persecution of Christians, the development of monasteries, and the Catholic dominance over the church. The long existence of the Catholic Church makes it one of the most interesting institutions to observe through the lens of history. This book will attempt to treat Christianity and the Catholic Church objectively. The many successes and victories that the Roman Catholic Church achieved are recognized in the pages of this book, as well as its flaws, defeats, and scandals it caused.
