It doesn't take long to watch a Protestant twist words around.

The author, John Bugay, relies heavily on a summary written by Eamon Duffy. Duffy's first quote "Irenaeus thought that the Church had been 'founded and organised at Rome by the two glorious Apostles, Peter and Paul,' is correct.

"yet for Irenaeus the authority of the Church at Rome came from its foundation by two Apostles, not one, Peter and Paul, not Peter alone." This is incorrect. For a Catholic, the authority of the Church comes from God. Nowhere does Irenaeus ever say its authority comes from Peter and Paul. Martin Luther would be proud.

Reading on a littler further, leads to another whopper:
"The tradition that Peter and Paul had been put to death at the hands of Nero in Rome about the year ad 64 was universally accepted in the second century"

This lie is too funny because Irenaeus actually calls out Eamon Duffy as a heretic back in 189 AD:
"It is possible, then, for everyone in every church, who may wish to know the truth, to contemplate the tradition of the apostles which has been made known to us throughout the whole world. And we are in a position to enumerate those who were instituted bishops by the apostles and their successors down to our own times, men who neither knew nor taught anything like what these heretics rave about" (Against Heresies 3:3:1 [A.D. 189]).

This article continues on with more heresy. I especially like how opinion is stated in bold, since bold type must make it true.

I just like opinion; period; with NO facts to back it up.
