What you call the claim is the very definition of the term. Yours is the claim.

What? What are you smoking? Your church claims that the term pope existed all the way back to Peter. It didn't. The term wasn't defined nor did the office exist until Rome defrauded the world via isidore and Gratian. There wasn't a line of popes until it was invented for the claim. After it was invented, there is no agreement on who was pope when or for how long in many instances because there is either little evidence or none. I have copies of the official Papal deeds - 12 of them. All 12 of them are different. You have people on the list that you call antipopes. In other words, you say satan infallibly led the church - that's the shorthand. So because a man of the devil infallibly led as it were, that's an unbroken chain. Who are you trying to shine on? The first actual pope didn't come about by title or definition of office for most of a millenium. The title was backward applied inventively to establish an appearance that is belied by actual history.
In otherwords, sell your story walking. I've researched the matter - female pope and all.
