Wrong. He knew Peter and probably John and Paul personally.
His "Letter to John" is spurious; that's not the same as saying he never knew him.
Polycarp was definitely a disciple of John.
"probably"? So give us the evidence...
So what.
I don't believe any RC's claim that these early theologians writings were "God Breathed". Their commentaries may be insightful and interesting, but no more so than any theologians who have written on Scripture.
Proximity does not guarantee truth. Judas walked the earth with Jesus and he sure didn't get it right.
So did Judas...that means nothing.. the question is did he know Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior??? Did He repent and believe???
