Talk:Roman Catholicism in Croatia

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Can I suggest this useful article is moved to the title 'Roman Catholic Church in Croatia' since other Christian groups also claim to be part of the Holy Catholic Church, it is a little one-sided to designate those who recognise the authority of the pope as being 'the Catholic Church'- as opposed to one part of it. --Doc Glasgow 21:54, 26 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Perhaps, but in Croatia when one talks of the Catholic Church this meaning is in the supermajority so judging by that the move is rather moot. --Joy [shallot] 12:00, 9 Jun 2005 (UTC)

compare bishoprics with: HBK or de:Katholische Kirche in Kroatien --Neoneo13 11:55, 8 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Mostar / Medjugorje

In what diocese is Medjugorje? I thought Mostar, but I don't see that. Is it Split?

See Roman Catholic Church in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Medjugorje is in the Mostar-Duvno Bishopric. --Thewanderer 20:07, 28 March 2006 (UTC)

Međugorje is in Bosnia-Hercegovina. Though it is a place of pilgrimage for Croats. Places of pilgrimage are not bound to countries or national churches. it is a place of pilgrimage for catholic croats. many people think that it is in croatia. Actually, Bosnia did not have an own established catholic church until recently, so the whole church in bosnia was organized by croatia, as well as other facts of the catholic church among Croats. Actually the Bosnian national catholic church is very much linked to the croatian church. (as is the diocese of kotor, which actually still belongs to split). There should be mentioned more places of pilgrimage in and around croatia. --Neoneo13 22:37, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
