It would be exciting to trace the influence on this process of the idea that the mission of Jerusalem had passed over to Rome, which explains why at first Jerusalem was not only not a "patriarchal see" but not even a metropolis: Jerusalem was now located in Rome, and since Peter's departure from that city, its primacy had been transferred to the capital of the pagan world.

Very interesting. This article is really a gem, a wealth of information.

I don't know that I'd call it information...More like propaganda...

'Jerusalem has never been in Rome nor will it ever be...

When Jesus shows up again, he will show up in Jerusalem - Israel, not Rome...

Who said that He will appear in Rome?

I will assume from the above that you're not Catholic. Please explain why you believe it is good manners to visit the thread of another religion and insult it. Is that what your religion teaches you?
