As you well know, among the many arguments advanced by the Latins for the subjugation of The Church to the Pope as well as his infallibility and his role as “Vicar of Christ on Earth” is the specious claim that +Peter himself is the rock upon which Christ founded his Church, Fr. Stylianopoulos’ very minority opinion (he has a number of them)to the contrary notwithstanding.
The sole purpose of articles such as these is to advance Roman claims to the right to rule over the entire Church. Taking Fr. Stylianopoulos’ comment and presenting it as if when he said it he means what the apologists for the Vatican heresies about the role of the Pope and the exercise of the Petrine Office is contemptible.
“The sole purpose of articles such as these is to advance Roman claims to the right to rule over the entire Church.”
That is a very interesting judgment. How remarkable to have such knowledge of the sole purpose of articles written by other people.
