I'm not claiming that; it is absolute fact.
It's a fact in semantics only. The early Christians believed what the catholic church believes.

But that is very different than your previous statement.
No it isn't

One has very little to do with the other. The central tenants of Christianity changed little throughout history, that doesn't mean Peter was "pope" in the way Francis is.
It has everything to do with it. If the early Christians walked, talked, worshipped and believed as catholics believe today...well, if you want to say that isn't catholic then I'll leave you to your hole.

Semantics are often important.

In some areas that is true, in others it is not. Even the most devout Catholic will admit that doctrine has changed in the past two thousand years.

We know for a fact that they didn't. Again, even the most devout Catholic in this thread has admitted that they started out worshiping in synagogues and moved into small homes when persecution began. There was no hierarchy or central authority.
