On "Roman Catholic": A qualification of the name Catholic commonly used in English-speaking countries by those unwilling to recognize the claims of the One True Church. Out of condescension for these dissidents, the members of that Church are wont in official documents to be styled "Roman Catholics" as if the term Catholic represented a genus of which those who owned allegiance to the pope formed a particular species. It is in fact a prevalent conception among Anglicans to regard the whole Catholic Church as made up of three principal branches, the Roman Catholic, the Anglo-Catholic and the Greek Catholic. As the erroneousness of this point of view has been sufficiently explained in the articles CHURCH and CATHOLIC, it is only needful here to consider the history of the composite term with which we are now concerned.

 * Please stop changing 'Roman Catholic' to 'Catholic'. Your indiscriminate changes are wrong when the subject matter is specifically the Latin Church - for instance, liberation theology. It can be a more inclusive term, but you need to consider each usage, and achieve consensus before changing it. Elizium23 (talk) 18:22, 19 May 2011 (UTC)
