Roman Catholic AnswerThe first major split form the Church that has lasted until today was the Eastern Church which was centered in Constantinople, which is the country of modern day Turkey.

.

Catholic Answer:

The Orthodox, who split from The Catholic Church in 1054 because they rejected Papal Supremacy, the Filioque, and a few other political reasons. As noted above, this was in what is now modern day Turkey.

The Assyrian Church of the East separated from the other Catholic/Orthodox churches at the Council of Ephesus in 431 AD.

Other groups had separated from the Catholic/Orthodox church prior to this, but have long since disappeared.
Well, the people that are now called Eastern Orthodox were the first ones to break away from the church. That would be Greece.

Where is the Roman Catholic religion mentioned in the Bible?

.Catholic AnswerThe Roman Catholic religion is not mentioned in the Bible for several reasons. First of all, there officially is no such thing as the "Roman Catholic religion." You are asking about the Catholic Church and it never uses the epithet "Roman." That appelation was first commonly used by the English after the protestant revolt in that country. .Secondly, the Bible (New Testament) was written by the Catholic Church in the first century of its existence, as part of its preaching, it is a reflection of the Sacred Tradition handed down to it by Our Blessed Lord and the Apostles..Thirdly, the Bible wasn't put together as we have it now until the Councils of Carthage in 297 and 419 A.D., the list of the Canon of Scripture was officially promulagated by Pope Damasus I at the Council of Rome in 382, and dogmatically stated - infallibly, by the Council of Trent in the sixteenth century..In other words, the Catholic Church, which is the Catholic religion (referred to as some as the "Roman Catholic religion" actually wrote the New Testament and decided on the Canon of it, thus it is referred to in the New Testament just as "the Church."

Does the Roman Catholic Church own valuable land and property?

Catholic AnswerThere is no "Roman Catholic Church", unless you are speaking of the local Catholic Church in the city of Rome. It's just Catholic, not Roman Catholic. Roman is an epithet first commonly used in England after the protestant revolt to describe the Catholic Church. It is never used by the official Catholic Church. .The Catholic Church does not own property as such, saving, of course, Vatican City, which actually is its own country, or city-state, if you will. In the United States, for instance, every thing in a diocese - parish Churches, property, schools, convents, everything is owned by the Bishop as corporate-sole. This is how the Catholic Church in the United States was set up due to the laws of that country. I am not familiar with other countries.
