  You see buildings, Popes, and councils and think that is the Church. That is how you can believe things like the Church was founded in the 4th century. In reality, the Church was founded at Pentecost by the Lord. Instead of focusing on what man has done, you should be focused on what the Lord has done.
  
  He has founded a Church. He has given her authority to speak for him until his return. He has given her the Holy Spirit to guide it. What you speak of is not a Church but a group of individuals, where each one has authority over the faith including the ability to shape the will of God in their own image. That is no Church.
  
  > When did Jesus ever distain to touch lepers, sit with sinners
  
  Jesus did sit with sinners... repentant ones. The ones who could have been saved, but the "righteous" neglected. Jesus did not reward those who shaped God in their own image and thought salvation was owed to them.
