Oh, that's rich. I'm so persuaded. Perhaps now would be a good time to talk about Pope Leo IX and his use of what is arguably the most notorious forgery in history.

What's your point? That the citations I linked are forgeries? Sorry, I don't believe they are, but feel free to present your evidence.

My point is that the "denunciation" of "errors" your priest gave you might well serve to denounce a number of Eastern saints and patriarchs.

My point is that if the quotations listed in that link were some kind of proof, the Donation of Constantine would not have been necessary. All those quotes prove is First Among Equals, something we have never even contested. Papal Supremacy is an 11th century invention.

If that is your way of saying that we've had a few heretics, then I'll give you that. We've had our fair share and then some. However, you are mixing apples and oranges. Difference being, we don't claim our Patriarchs to be infallible.
