But you see, it DOES matter when Peter was in Rome..He has been declared the first Pope of Rome for about 2000 years now. The whole Church the Body of Christ depends on veracity and absolute, unerring truth. Those 235 years formed more heresy and deceit than probably all other times in history put together. Details matter. It is the only way to see through the fog of what man said happened and what God said happened. From the day of Pentecost to the Second Coming of Christ is the reason God gave us Acts through Revelation. For our understanding of His plan for us.

Every place He sent someone was for a reason. And not to be overlooked or under-appreciated because it SEEMS unnecessary to where we are today. That's why the Book of Acts is so important. It tells us where, when, how, and why He did what He did. If a person takes the time to study that one Book, much of the confusion will end.

Not in my half of the church. Peter is accepted that way due to tradition, But in Orthodoxy, The Pope is not a Primate.

And yes, many heresies came about, and the Councils dealt with them all.

I am not confused. I accept the Holy Tradition on faith.
