I heard someone comment once that the early “popes” always went to the scripture when a decision needed to be made.. but they soon thought they made the right decision because they were infallible, not because the scriptures they searched were..

Silly. Peter is the first Pope. By what Scriptural authority did he do away with circumcision for the gentiles in Acts 15?

Dear Lady, I read your profile and understand your history. I traveled a similar road... but found my way home to the One, Holy Apostolic Church. My wife and I know that our American Catholic Church has many troubles... but the Truth of the faith given by Christ is undeniable when understood.

Your comment is a strange one. If you have read any of the Papal Encyclicals from any time in history, including the most recent, you would find that the Bible is a part of the life of the Catholic Church in all that we do. That it was not a part of your Catholic life is a sad travesty.
