Talk:Worldwide Communion of Catholic Apostolic Churches

message: Hmm...so who is really the American Church for ICAN??? No one can seem to give a striaght or honest answer.
:The history of the American churches with ICAN has certainly been confusing and twisted, and sad.  Hopefully with Dom Josivaldo at the helm as president of the Brazilian church now (with Dom Luis still as patriarch but more in a father-figure role), the communion will come to a more stable and better grounded place.

replies: text: Good question - I don't know.  If we can't get confirmation, this should be deleted, since Wikipedia has a verifiability rule. Timotheos 19:07, 2 August 2007 (UTC)

message: What is the difference between the WCCAC and the Old Catholics, and the PNC, and the Mariavites, and the Orthodox?  Are they in communion with them? If not, why not? --Richardson mcphillips (talk) 22:48, 3 May 2012 (UTC)

message: CICAM is .
In 2008, there were several edits by what looks like WP:SPAs. It looks like there was a power struggle c. 2008. Three websites made claims about CICAM-WCCAC in 2008–2009, icergua.org, igrejabrasileira.com.br, and mncc.net.
*The page www.icergua.org/cicamwccac/ was the  page according to a 2008  newsletter (but an incorrect URL www.icergua.org/cicam.wccac instead of www.icergua.org/cicamwccac/) and
:icergua.org page was linked from mncc.net homepage in 2008 (but an incorrect URL www.icergua.org/cicam.wccac/id4.html instead of www.icergua.org/cicamwccac/)
*The circa January 2009 mncc.net homepage changed that link from the icergua.org page to a igrejabrasileira.com.br CICAM page created in 2009
*The circa April 2009 mncc.net homepage changed that link again to an internal mncc.net CICAM-WCCAC page although the igrejabrasileira.com.br CICAM page remained until 2012. The affiliations found in the internal mncc.net CICAM-WCCAC page do not correspond to the affiliations found in either the igrejabrasileira.com.br CICAM page or the 2008  newsletter.
In 2007 the homepage of  mncc.net stated that "The Mexican National Catholic Church: A member church of the Old Catholic Church Corp." In 2008 the homepage of  mncc.net stated that it was "a member of the Worldwide Communion of Catholic Apostolic Churches". According to the Orthodox Christians in North America 1794–1994, reprinted on the Orthodox Church in America website (oca.org),
The Orthodox Church in America Diocese of Mexico "was created through the mass conversion (some 10,000 persons) of the entire Mexican National Catholic Church to Orthodoxy in 1972," (here) and oca.org, links to ocamexico.org and not to mncc.net. The website mncc.net contains assertions that do not conform to reality, examples include:
*that "The Russian Orthodox Church, Patriarchate of Moscow" was a member church in 2009 of CICAM-WCCAC and names two purported ROC archbishops (here and here)
*that the "Mexican National Catholic Church" was "founded 1790 by the Roman Catholic Church" (here) although that contradicts Religions of the world which dates its founding to the 1920s
According to mncc.net, "The Communion has an Educational network to promote Christian Education and High Education: Oxford Educational Network," (here), which according to John Bear, in the 2012 edition of Degree mills: the billion-dollar industry that has sold over a million fake diplomas, is an "unrecognized accrediting organization" (here). A google search of forum sites is interesting to read but doesn't lead to anything reliable. The "internationally accredited school" described on mncc.net is not found on the Texas Education Agency's Map of Texas Charter Schools.

message: I have done some edits recently. In summary: I have dramatically shortened and merged some very wordy sentences and paragraphs and tried to throw out as much of the unsourced, unreferenced stuff as possible. I have added sources and citations. The list of member churches was quite a mess - the wrong Mexican church was linked, and the actual member church not mentioned (possibly because of someone not wanting to highlight the anti-gay anti-women stances?). There was / is so much unsourced material and still no evidence that WCCAC still exists - no website, in 2019? Vintage-vintner (talk) 13:36, 15 August 2019 (UTC)
thread_title:  Recent updates 

message: Some totally unsourced and unreferenced garbage was added last year, specifically: 
"The World Communion of Catholic Apostolic Churches is still very active when it comes to Europe and most especially to Archbishop Gioacchino Collica who is presently leading the Catholic Apostolic Church of Europe with its headquater in Germany. His Exzellency Archbishop Collica who has been with ICAB however has been Incardinated into the Worldwide Communion of Cathilic Apostolic Churches by Most Revd. Mons. Jose Sanchez, the Archbishop of the Catholic Apostolic Church in America as well as by the Most Revd. Msgr. Ricardo Rodriguez, the Secretary to the Congregation of the Faith. Work continues with high speed as there has been the recently formation of a new religious order as well as several paszoral visits into other countrys, including Cameroon which will be visites in January."
I suggest using a good spellcheck. And.. sources? I have restored the SOURCED and REFERENCED text that was wiped.
