except that this was told to Peter, and not the council, at this point so the Biblical answer is the correct one....not a speculative answer as to how the council may or may not have ruled.

I'm glad if you acknowledge Peter's designation at the word of our Lord. Peter exercised this leadership at the Council, in unity with the other Apostles (and those eligible to be Apostles). Peter had the power to bind and loose.

You may recall that the opinion of James was the one the Council went with....not Peter's. Looks like James had the leadership role. So there was no "leader" as you presuppose.

But back to the original topic; you took a verse out of context and tried to make an example of a false teaching within the Bible.....much as you are attempting to do this with poor comparison.
