So how did a counsel agree
Heretics have been the majority at times
The council has a result that has to be approved by the Pope
It hasn't always been with a pope at the head
It's why the Orthodox have issue with the Catholic Church
The word of the Pope has always been final. If the Pope decrees that a council is not valid, it is not valid
And I will call them out on that
Who appoints a pope?
You can check the details on how new popes come to be
But the moment someone is Pope, he has authority
No, please don't be coy.
How does a pope become pope
I don't know the exact details about how the Pope is chosen, they are irrelevant here
No it's not
Because if they're chosen by a council or by bishops my point still holds
They are, because authority does not come from a bloodline, but from God
It's literally because of democracy
If they are chosen by a council, there is no voting by any majority of population
Otherwise, you could as well sya that there is a democracy where the population is a single person
Well that's essentially what I am saying. Is that the pope is infallible because you say he's infallible.
That's not an argument
He's infallible because the Church is divine, created by Christ and the Gates of Hell will not prevail
What part of that is not an argument?
The circular part.
What circular part? The original is well established with the creation of the Church by Christ
>Scripture is not the basis of Christianity
>uses scripture to prove point
So?
It is what Christ said, with or without scripture narrating it
I think you are mistaking consistency with circularity
All the pieces fit perfectly with each other, and you call it "circular"
Haha
It doesn't fit perfectly
You use mental gymnastics to shove it together
It does. An unbroken line of succession since Peter
Right
Things have been this way from the first christians
That was decided upon by a council
Irregardless of scripture
Because scripture is not the basis of Christianity
