Who cares what Augustine said about church authority. When you can show Augustine as reliable as the Apostles, I'll give a hoot what Augustine said. You can't do that. And we have scripture that deliniates the authority of offices and of scripture. They don't rise to the level your clergy has raised from whole cloth and the opinions of men.
