Was Peter "prime Minister" In Rome?

[Socrates]

The fact that Peter went to Rome, had special authority over the other apostles, and was succeeded by the bishop of Rome, who had primacy in the Church is attested to unanimously by the Early Church Fathers in the early centuries of the Church.

Here's some great links which include evidence from the writings of the Early Church Fathers, as well as the Bible.

Socrates. Only his proof-texting is admissible.

Here's the pattern:

[s]Budge[/s] [s]Stormstopper[/s] Shadyrest posts proof-texting and editorials about Catholicism (which is what he means to discuss in spite of limiting himself only to the Roman Rite).

A. Proof-texting is responded to with various arguments and other biblical quotations.

II.Text-formatting, personal attack, proof-texting of other verses. There will be no refutations, just some other quotes and perhaps a mutilated version of the arguments which will present no obstruction since they are actually altered in order to be easily knocked down.


Stage 3: Profit!!!!!
