    Before the Byzantine separation that brought us Eastern and Western Christianity, this word meant 'a universal faith' or more accurately 'a faith recognised by all'. The first time we find that word in writing is in a letter from 110AD by Ignatius of Antioch, addressing the Christians in Smyrna to follow their Bishop like the church follows 'the universal faith'. Κατά (kata) is a preposition and among other things, it means 'according to' and ολικός (olikos) means 'Whole'. ΚΑΘΟΛΙΚΟΣ/CATHOLIC
