Catholics believe Jesus appointed Peter as the first pope when He said "You are Peter, the rock, and upon this rock I will build my church."

Protestantism split from there starting with Luther.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
