Roman Catholic AnswerThe Catholic Church was founded by God from the side of Jesus Christ hanging on the cross, and confirmed 50 days later by the Holy Spirit at Pentecost. The Orthodox Church was formed when the eastern Churches declared their independence from Rome in the twelve century - considerably later; so the Catholic Church was "first".

That is also the reason why Rizal was also denied the benefit of a Catholic mass during his burial. Actually Jose Rizal's religon is masonry. If you will check Dapitan where he stayed during his exile you will find all the signs that he had builded and he was even teaching it to some filipino working their for him. He was also teaching English to the filipino's during those time to prepare them for the invasion of the US because he know that they will come.

Where did the Catholics religion come from?

The Roman Catholic Religion originally came from Judaism. All the founding members of the Church were Jews. Our Blessed Lord, Himself, was a Jew, and His apostles were all Jews. The "Roman" part of it comes from the fact that the first Pope, Peter, went to Rome, which was the center of the civilized world at that point in history, and the Church has spread out from Rome to cover the world. "Roman" is an epithet first commonly used in England after the protestant revolt to describe the Catholic Church. It is never used by the Catholic Church.
