I don't know what you're talking about.The "Petrines"(Catholic Church)has NEVER denied that Paul was in Rome.The Church has always taught that Paul was in Rome as was St.Peter.You really ought to read a good book on Church History.You would be amazed.

Can you recommend just one or two of the better books about church history!

Thanks for this and your many other posts. It's nice to be reminded of our great intellectual and spirtual legacy in this smugly ahistorical age of ours.

Sorry if I was obtuse.  What I meant to say was that the first three bishops mentioned are assumed to be Petrine, which may not be the case.  There seems to be some evidence that Titus was put in by Paul, not Peter.
