I count two ‘self governing non-catholic churches’, but not ‘alongside the one catholic church’, rather at first before, and then within.By pooling our resources, perhaps, the multitude here at CAF (both catholic and non-catholic) - can reach a consensus as to the exact number of churches that had no affiliation, at any time, with the one catholic church (in other words they were always self governing non-catholic churches since the days of Pentecost) - and yet existed alongside the one catholic church, again, as a separate entity, since the days of Pentecost, leading up to the eventual great 11th century east - west schism?
