**Nowhere (in the Bible) is the church exhorted to look to Peter as its supreme infallible head.**

Please read about the Council of Jerusalem. St. Peter was the speaker, then others took action.

Sal, that is just the manner of absurd wresting of Scripture that RCs imagine actually proves or supports their desired conclusion. The fact is that rather than Peter being looked to as giving the fallible decree as to what should be done, then people going into action, he gave his testimony and holy two sentence exhortation, then Barnabas and Paul also gave testimony and but it was James, the leader of the church at Jerusalem, "after they had held their peace," that gave the definitive 170 word conclusive statement on what should be done, confirming and adding to what Peter held, to which all concurred (not just a special class of clergy), and went into action.

And which is not the way Rome would write it, or examples, and thus as i said in the refutation sasportas was referring to, such is at least is evidence that Rome did change the Bible to support here, but which lack of testimony is why Rome employed the use forgeries to support her pretensions.
