It IS the church you are referring to. As you and other Roman Catholics constantly point out, those others are different "rites" within this one church, not separate denominations.The Church of Rome is a particular Church of the Roman rite which belongs to the Catholic Church.
So is the use of the word Roman in the name of the church you are speaking of. That is part of its legal name in this country.This thread is about Eastern Orthodoxy and Catholicism, which are the names which the churches give themselves.
Very well. In England, the name is the Church of England and it is, in law, the Catholic church in that country. I'll expect you to honor this fact when referring to the Anglican church.Please stop derailing the thread with tangential points, and please stop telling Catholics what the name of their Church is. I do not tell Anglicans what the name of their church is. That would be extremely rude and arrogant.
And by the way, the topic of this thread is "EO and Catholicism," not the Roman Catholic Church.
