Vague accusations? No, Aiza, I've been fairly explicit. The history you have offered and the actual history of the office of the papacy are not equal. One is an article of faith, the other is an account of politics and religion that is grounded in reality. The petrine passage is used as a part of this faith narrative of the pope, but the petrine passage (and indeed the biblical narrative itself) is not history. The church has been and continues to change, and this includes what is or is not dogma. Also, at this point, I think you're trolling.
Is that direct enough for you?
