According to your religion Peter was the chief apostle to the Catholic Church...
According to the God inspired scriptures the apostle Paul was the chief apostle to the Gentile church...Apparently then the Catholic religion is not affiliated with the Gentile church spoken of at length in the scriptures...
And while Paul was our chief apostle we are told by that man thru the inspiration of God not to focus on any man...So we focus on Jesus Christ...
The bible that your religion claims to own condemns the practices of the Catholic religion in numerous places...So it’s easy to see why your religion doesn’t accept the inspired words of God as its supreme authority...
Just watching your religion and reading the scriptures shows us conclusively that your Catholic religion is NOT the Christian church of the bible...
So with the condemnation of scripture it stands to reason that your religion, by perverting scripture and taking scripture completely out of context, that your religion would invent an ‘infallible authority’ beyond the words of God...
I would too if I wanted to deceive people...
