Has any Freeper ever changed his mind or even thought much about points made by opposing views on the religious threads? Be honest, and give examples.On this particular discussion point I have indeed changed my mind. On the NeverEnding Threads I decided (tho I be a proddie) that Peter was indeed the rock. What that means does not necessarily lead down the RCC road. FWIW

The main point should be is what is St Peter's role? He certainly never made an "infallable statement" "ex cathedra". Ancient Christianity knew of no such thing. Decisions were made by councils of bishops and were ratified over the years by the Church at large with the leading of the Holy Spirit. Rome lead the first Protestant "reformation" in 1054 and completed her estrangement from the "one Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church" in 1880 with the dogma of papal infallibility. Orthodox Christianity has kept to the old road and has preserved the faith once delivered to the saints.
