Yes I was careful to not mention Christianity. Still, any true decentralization supporter should, in my humble view, reject any sort of tendency towards centralization. Be it of faith or church. Just my two sats though. I'm interested in this subject and will have a look into your writting.
Roman Catholic, Episcopal/Anglican, Presbyterian, and every hierarchical denominational church exhibit abject lack of faith in Christ as head by centralizing.
King Jesus is the only central authority the ecclesia needs!😁
I write about this and other important church reform issues here:
