Peter was the foundation of the Christian church. Emperor Constantine was the founder and first pope of the roman catholic church. There is no lineage between the two.

Yep. Constantine took his version of the church and turned it into a paganistic cult. It's not the one true Church.

Never happened.

Which is why your church rejects Nicaea?

Catholics believe :

I believe in one God, the Father Almighty, maker of heaven and earth, and of all things visible and invisible. And in one Lord Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son of God, and born of the Father before all ages. God of God light of light, true God of true God. Begotten not made, consubstantial to the Father, by whom all things were made. Who for us men and for our salvation came down from heaven. And was incarnate of the Holy Ghost and of the Virgin Mary and was made man; was crucified also for us under Pontius Pilate, suffered and was buried; and the third day rose again according to the Scriptures. And ascended into heaven, sits at the right hand of the Father, and shall come again with glory to judge the living and the dead, of whose Kingdom there shall be no end. And I believe in the Holy Ghost, the Lord and Giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son, who together with the Father and the Son is to be adored and glorified, who spoke by the Prophets. And one holy, catholic, and apostolic Church. I confess one baptism for the remission of sins. And I look for the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come. Amen.

so which part of that is a "paganistic cult"?

One thing for sure, those who thrive on attacking Catholics are solidly on the side of King Barry whether it's telling others to not vote for Romney or telling others that Catholics aren't Christian. Whatever they can do to cause divisions among Christians supports King Barry so they do whatever they can do to help King Barry.

Which is why such folks aren't the least bit upset that two thirds of infants murdered in the womb are murdered by abortificiant contraceptives when superior alternatives exist that don't murder infants, and why they don't bother with any discussion of or resistance to King Barry stomping on the First Amendment.
