In this instance, the Roman denomination decided all should bow to Rome. They then try to justify it by twisting the passage in Matthew. The Orthodox denominations didn’t agree with the arrogance of Rome. Rightly so.

I have somewhat of an understanding of how Jesus felt, when he looked around at some people, grieving at their inbelief, and hardness of their hearts. Do you think this is just a 21st century version?

In short, yes... But it is also the human condition before regeneration.
