And this is precisely why there are several titles for the Pope - and again - "Pope" is NOT one of them: -Bishop of Rome -Vicar of Jesus Christ -Successor of the Prince of the Apostles -Supreme Pontiff of the Universal Church -Primate of Italy -Archbishop and Metropolitan of the Roman Province...

No - Pontifex Maximus means Greatest Bridge BUILDER. There you go again with your false claims.

Then WHY ask me what it means?? "Ponte" means "Bridge" in Italian. Even an uninformed American like ME knows this.

When I disproved your claim that there was no Pope in AD 325 during the council of Nicaea.

Well - for starters, when you claimed that there was no Pope in AD 325 during the Council of Nicaea.

Is Christ not the ladder - the bridge to Heaven (Gen. 28:10-17)? As Christians, we are ALL called to be bridge builders between the world and God.

You DO understand some Catholic issues - but are woefully-ignorant of others.

I never said that YOU were dumb but you have made some pretty dumb comments because you don't do your homework. What you state - you THINK you know. However, I have proven you wrong on countless occasions because I actually DO my homework before posting . . .

It comes from the word for bridge, "Ponte". As I said before - living in Italy you should know this.

Ummmmm, first of all - a smart person can make a dumb comment. I see it every day. Secondly - I'll stop pointing out the dumb comments when you and the other anti-Catholics here stop making them. Finally - "Pontifex Maximus" simply means "Greatest Bridge Builder". Living in Italy - you should...

Ummmmmmm . . . HOW did Jesus "eliminate" the Deuterocanonical Books in Luke 24?? This is without a doubt - the most inane claim I have heard on the subject. I can't WAIT to read your answer . . .

Soooo, by your logic - Catholics would understand this issue better than YOU . . .

Sooooo, only an American historian can teach American history? Does the same go for Italians? Brits? French? Russians? This is a preposterous point of view. We're talking about CHURCH history anyway - and it's NOT limited to Europe . . .

An impotent response - what a surprise . . .

Now there's an "intelligent" answer. "LOL" - the last refuge of the truly desperate . . . I mocked your inane post - not YOU personally. If you can't handle that - then you might want to rethink spending so much time on a debate site . . .

First of all - I didn't insult YOU. I said that your claim was asinine and revisionist. It IS. I also said that your history is WAY off. It IS. As I already pointed out - referencing an anti-Catholic site as "proof" for the origins of the Papacy makes as much sense as asking a Nazi fair a...

An informed, honest person - no matter WHERE they live. While we're at it - why would you reference an anti-Catholic link as "proof" for the origin of the papacy??

As I explained to you in my last post (#43) - with the tens of thousands of disjointed and perpetually-splintering factions of Protestantism, there are multiple definitions. SOME Protestants believe that Sola Scriptura means that all doctrines must be explicitly spelled out in Scripture. Other...

And this is another falsehood. because your definition of Sola Scriptura is not shared by all Protestants. Unfortunately, with the tens of thousands of disjointed and perpetually-splintering factions of Protestantism, there are multiple definitions. SOME Protestants believe that Sola Scriptura...

WHY would you make this asinine and revisionist claim?? As a matter of fact Sylvester I was the Pope during the Council of Nicaea. Furthermore - it wasn't Constantine who presided over the Council. He wrote a series of very respectful letters to several bishops - BEGGING them to convene to...
