Episode notes
Papacy's Central Role
- The papacy is the most distinctive doctrine in Catholicism but not necessarily the most important doctrine.
- One must accept the papacy's truth to logically be Catholic and reject it leads to being outside the faith.
Infallible Teachings Define Boundaries
- The Roman Catholic Magisterium claims infallible teaching, making acceptance of certain dogmas mandatory.
- Rejecting such dogmas, like the bodily assumption of Mary, means rejecting the faith from a Catholic standpoint.
Shared Leadership Among Apostles
- Leadership roles like Peter's among apostles were shared and cooperative, not singularly monarchical.
- The New Testament lacks clear evidence of a perpetual single bishop like the papacy.
