So the RCC actually teaches not apostolic succession of authority, but rather apostolic distribution of authority.

"“To one who has faith, no proof is necessary. To one without faith, no proof is possible.” - St. Thomas Aquinas

"Extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof" - Carl Sagan, who is now a believer in Jesus Christ.

Perhaps you could enlighten me on your level of training in Catholic doctrine; who you trained under, where, when, etc. so that I can determine if you are maleducated or simply uneducated in this field. I find it is usually one of these two cases when a non-Catholic assumes a position of authority in arguing against and contradicting educated Catholics on the real teachings and meanings of Church doctrine.

Does this change of attack mean you you have conceded the point on the real meaning of zemiothesetai?

Peace be with you
