“self-controlled”, “not quarrelsome” - I guess Jesus should have never made Peter the first pope since Peter was neither “self-controlled” or “not quarrelsome”./sarc

Well, he didn't make Peter the first pope. I guess He knew the character of man well enough to not establish that kind of absolute power and authority of one man over another.

Peter blows it time an again. That alone is evidence enough against claiming he was pope.

met, you do realise we Christians worship a forgiving, loving God, right? It may be hard for your group to realise, but God is love. The guy your group’s bosses follow is the master of evil, no wonder they direct your group to hate the followers of Christ.

Is there no end of mischaracterization that you will post? Who said that Peter had absolute power and authority? Hint - it isn't the Catholics.

I see. The saint who leads your heretical group that denies the Gospel of Christ and the Nicene Creed never blew anything at all? Not even greater than .08?
