ok, understood, but did the 'pope' exist at that time? gods 'vanguard' on earth? and if he wasnt, who has the authority to preside over such important matters pertaining to the church. surely not a pagan ruler turn pseudo-christian?
i was under the impression that only the pope could change the laws of the church. when did the papacy officially begin, and who had that authority at the time in 325AD. and on the subject on infallibility, can the pope make mistakes? if so, say we had a maniac pope who did bad things, does that not lead to staining the name of god since, god theoretically stamps a seal on the popes judgements?
sorry, im not trying to be difficult, im not a christian, but im just curious.
