A. I've read the book you mentioned, History of Rome and
B. the Alberto Series is not a tract--it's an autobiographical book series written by former Jesuit Priest Dr. Alberto Riveria. Jack Chick was not the author.
So before you say I am looking foolish, I suggest you (again) check your facts. For the record, the biggest volume of work where I got my research was from the Catholic Encyclopedia and from interviews of the priest at the Chicago Archdiocese who agreed with the research. I stand by my research as do several theologians who have read it.
Furthermore, the original question asked by other members was why some people do not believe Catholicism is Christian. I answered the question. I did not say that I shared that opinion and I also said that all churches fall short of Biblical accuracy.
If you'd like to continue this conversation, first read all the books I've listed since I've read your one source and then follow up in a PM because I will not dignify anymore of your unfounded accusations and personal attacks in a public forum.

You're just looking worse and worse now. If I were you, I'd quit while I was ahead. Who cares how many books you read if they all have a bias? I don't think anyone cares how many you've read about any subject--you said something you probably should have thought about, and now you're digging yourself into a hole.
Also, maybe you should know who someone is before you reference their "work" or a website. Jack Chick is the creator of that tract on the Jesuit priest.
Okay, here's a non-Catholic source for a basic history of the circumstances leading up to the creating of the RC. Richard Krautheimer's A History of Rome.
Let me know how you enjoy it. It might be a little difficult for you.
