The Catholic Church was founded by Jesus Christ on the Apostles, the first Bishops! Look at the facts!!!!

That's what the Catholic Church tells you. When you are told a lie often enough it begins to sound like the truth. And so people who are raised in the RCC believe the lie.

Peter was not the leader of the Catholic church. Paul wrote in Galatians chapter 2 verse 7 that the gospel to the uncircumcised (Gentiles, anyone not Jews) was committed to Paul. The gospel to the circumcised (Jewish) was committed to Peter. Since most of us including the Catholic church are Gentiles the leader was Paul not Peter. I believe Paul taught this in other passages but this one is in my memory. ---Peter's statement of Jesus is the Christ is the Rock that Jesus church is built on, not Peter himself.

We have no further mention of Peter in the Acts of the Apostles. He seems to have gone down to Antioch after the council at Jerusalem, and there to have been guilty of dissembling, for which he was severely reprimanded by Paul (Gal. 2:11-16), who “rebuked him to his face.” After this he appears to have carried the gospel to the east, and to have laboured for a while at Babylon, on the Euphrates (1 Pet. 5:13). There is no satisfactory evidence that he (Peter) was ever at Rome. Where or when he died is not certainly known. Probably he died between A.D. 64 and 67.

The followers of Yeshua were all Jews who kept the Torah. It was the Catholic Church formed by Constantine who took away the Jewishness.

All that pagan stuff...the sign of the cross, veneration of saints, the Mass. It was the pagan Emperor Constantine who brought that stuff into the church at the instigation of corrupt Gentiles.

The Catholic Church began with the Council of Nicaea in 325 AD! Before that date the Church was pure!

"We have no further mention of Peter in the Acts of the Apostles."

I think you ought to review that statement. Peter is mentioned 60 times in Acts of the Apostles : Acts 1:13, Acts 1:15, Acts 2:37, Acts 2:38, Acts 3:1, Acts 3:3, Acts 3:4, Acts 3:6, Acts 3:11, Acts 3:12, Acts 4:1, Acts 4:8, Acts 4:13, Acts 4:19, Acts 5:3, Acts 5:8, Acts 5:9, Acts 5:15, Acts 5:29, Acts 8:14, Acts 8:20, Acts 9:32, Acts 9:34, Acts 9:38, Acts 9:39, Acts 9:40, Acts 9:43, Acts 10:5, Acts 10:9, Acts 10:13, Acts 10:14, Acts 10:17, Acts 10:18, Acts 10:19, Acts 10:21, Acts 10:23, Acts 10:25, Acts 10:26, Acts 10:32, Acts 10:43, Acts 10:44, Acts 10:45, Acts 10:46, Acts 11:1, Acts 11:2, Acts 11:4, Acts 11:7, Acts 11:7, Acts 11:13, Acts 12:1, Acts 12:3, Acts 12:5, Acts 12:6, Acts 12:7, Acts 12:11, Acts 12:14, Acts 12:16, Acts 12:18, and Acts 15:7.

You are equally wrong on your assessment of the exclusivity of the ministries of the Apostles and St. Paul and to the historicity of Peter and the Catholic Church.
