[Do Catholics honestly think that they were the first Church?
Not trying to be offensive, but the first churches were in peoples homes, the Catholic Church came later, and even then the Roman Catholic church was a development of that. Could any Catholic please explain this idea that you were the first church to me?]
When you read the Book of Acts in the Bible, you see clearly that catholicism wasn't "the first church".
Catholicism is not Christian. The first church would have rejected catholicism completely, had catholicism existed at that time. Catholicism didn't exist for over 300 years later.
Catholicism is false. Catholicism teaches a false gospel of works that leads to eternal hell (Galatians 1:6-9).
Now you'll find a million catholics and even unbelievers and atheists immediately running to the defense of the catholic cult, but when you read the Bible, you see that catholicism is totally false.
Catholic = faith + works = no salvation and eternal torment in hell
Christian = FAITH ALONE IN JESUS = salvation and eternity in heaven with Jesus! :)
