Catholic AnswerRoman is an epithet first commonly used in England after the protestant revolt to describe the Catholic Church. It is rarely used by the Catholic Church.

.

Currently (2012) there are 168 dioceses in India. A diocese in the Catholic faith is known as a particular Church. If you are asking about actual Church buildings, or parish communities, you would need to poll each of the 168 diocese (they can be found at the first link below).

Who wanted to make England Catholic?

The first churches in Britain (and Ireland) were not connected to Rome, they were independent, and known as the 'Celtic' churches. Then in 597AD, the Roman Catholic church sent a monk called Augustine (not the famous Augustine of Hippo) who began to spread the Roman Catholic influence. Eventually the Celtic Churches agreed to follow Roman customs. So the Church of England was Roman Catholic until the time of Henry VIII, when it broke away during the Protestant Reformation. The Catholics have always wanted England to return to Roman Catholicism, and this almost happened during the reign of Queen Mary, Henry VIII's daughter - she was a Catholic and had many Protestant leaders burned at the stake. But she was succeeded by her sister Queen Elizabeth I, who was a Protestant, and the Church of England has been Protestant ever since. Eventually the Roman Catholic church realised it could not win the Church of England back, so it started planting new Catholic churches in England. So there are now churches, ministers, cathedrals and bishops of both denominations.


What is the name of the statue in a Catholic church?

There are often many statutes in Catholic churches and there don't need to be any. They don't have a particular name. For example, a statue of the Blessed Virgin Mary is the statue of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Sometimes 2-dimensional representations of saints are present. These are called icons. These are more common in Eastern Catholic and Orthodox churches than Roman Catholic churches but you sometimes find icons in Roman churches too.


What is the difference between episcapalion and catholic?

Both churches and the Lutheran Church are "non reformed churches". They did not eliminate the rites of the Roman Catholic Church during the reformation. The Lutheran and Episcopal Churches are Protestant churches. The Lutheran church was founder by Martin Luther when he broke away from the Catholic Church and the Episcopalian church was formed when King Henry the eighth of England broke away from the Catholic Church and the Pope. He later took over all the churches and destroyed many of them. As a side note, all Christians were Roman Catholic until the 15th century.

Just about every state capital is a copy of Roman art. The federal capital and congress has architectural elements influenced by Rome. Arenas were first built by Rome, buildings with domes were also first built by Rome. Many churches are copied from Catholic Churches through out Italy. A new Catholic Church was built in my area with the dome and bell tower just like the Roman churches. Everywhere you look you will find the influence of Roman art and architecture.
