When speaking with someone who is Roman Catholic, he tried to make a case for the historical unity of the Catholic church as contrasted with the many 'divisions' and 'factions' that comprise the various denominations of Protestantism. His claim was that the Catholic church does not have the same alleged history of 'division' within their own ranks. He was trying to make the case that this type of division is the fruit of the Reformation. I'm sure that's not a new argument to the folks here. But, admittedly, I'm not the most knowledgeable person when it comes to the history of the Catholic church.
How would you answer this person? What divisions of historical significance have the Catholic church had from within?
