	Polish National Catholic Church - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The PNCC was founded in the late 1800s in North America by Polish Roman Catholics resentful of diocesan ownership of their parishes and the dominance of the Roman Catholic Church in North America at that time by German and Irish prelates.
		As a member of the Union of Utrecht the PNCC rejects a number of Roman Catholic dogmas insisting that they are theological novelties, including the infallibility of the Pope, the Immaculate Conception of the Mary the Ever-Virgin and Mother of God, and original sin.
		Although the PNCC has entered into tentative negotiations with the Orthodox Church in North America, no union has resulted due to the PNCC's refusal to abandon several Western concepts (including the Western Church's view of the Holy Trinity and of the sacraments).

		At its zenith in 1904 the Philippine Independent Church was reliably estimated to have had a membership of between one-quarter and one-third of the Christian population.

The rejected the doctrine of the Trinity as well as the possibility of miracles, including those mentioned in the New Testament.
		They asserted that the rank-and-file Aglipayans held to the traditional teachings, that immutability is a characteristic quality of religious truths, and further that the new doctrines were contrary to the faith that the leaders of the Aglipayan church publicly swore to preserve.

	Death of a bishop - 10/10/06
		More known as the Aglipayan Church, in reference to its founder, Gregorio Aglipay, the IFI is the national church that was born out of the Philippine Revolution against Spain.
		While the Catholic Church often draws from its solid and strong body of social ethics teachings and even the liberation school of theology to craft its theological and pastoral responses to Philippine developments, it does not present a definite social blueprint or ideology.
		It is not inconceivable that as a bishop of a feudal hotspot, Ramento and his church haven’t been exactly restrained in invoking the prophetic role of the Christian church in protesting social injustice and calling for a radical social overhaul.

		As the Church continues down through time, the size of this tremendous amount of data one must study and be familiar with in order to prove that can only grow exponentially with the age of the Church.
		These commands became especially necessary when, due to the success of the Church in the West, and of the European nations which by law embraced Christianity and became therefore "Christian nations," or "Christendom," certain priests and bishops in the East were beginning to Westernize their Rites.

	Sun.Star Cagayan de Oro - Editorial: Contradiction to claims
		THE death of an Aglipayan prelate in Tarlac City is a serious blow not only to the peace and order situation in that area but also to the claim by the PNP leadership of its success in the resolution of murders on militant leaders and media practitioners.
		Well, as one local Aglipayan church official said here the church leader's death comes even as the military accuses the Aglipayan church or the Iglesia Filipiniana Independiente of harboring communists within its ranks, a charge also leveled against militant groups.
		Following that line it would seem that the Aglipayan prelate's death is yet another significant indication of the national government's speculated crackdown on militant figures or groups that dared to criticize the Arroyo administration for its crimes and questioned legitimacy before the Filipino people.

		The radicalism of the IFI is deeply rooted in its history as the church of the Philippine Revolution, which was motivated in great part by native resentment for what Marcelo H. del Pilar satirically described as la soberania monacal.
		In the early part of the conquista, the Spanish friars were regarded as champions of the indios, which paved the way toward the mass conversion of the native population.
		The bulk of Aglipayans are concentrated in the Ilocos, the home region of its founder.

		I believe that the founder of [the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints], Joseph Smith, is a far more influential figure and deserves as much attention as the father of modern theology, Freidrich Schleiermacher, yet current textbooks and course offerings invariably mention Schleiermacher but rarely pay any attention to Joseph Smith.
		Other measurements, such as how many churches or meeting places a faith group owns or how many congregations/meeting groups there are, can also be instructive, but are usually not used as a measure of overall size.
		This might cause some people to think the church's figures are inaccurate, or it might seem like we are being harsh to ignore their figure and estimate such a low one.
