[QUOTE="isshinwhat, post: 514794, member: 2132"] Irenaeus' dispute with Victor was over a matter of Canon Law, and not Dogma. Canon Law can change, and thus there have always been and always will be people who will strive to have them changed. For instance, a faithful Catholic can believe in Papal Infallibility, yet spend his entire life fighting the Canon Law demanding celibacy for Latin Rite priests. One can still believe, as Iranaeus did, that it was [b]necessary[/b] to agree with the Church of Rome in matters of Faith, but disagree with how that faith is practiced. What is interesting about their difference of opinion in this matter is Iranaeus never denied that the Pope had the right and ability to excommunicate the Eastern Church members who were not in agreement, but did not agree with his doing so. He did not question the [i]authority[/i] of Pope Victor, he "besought him to consider the things of peace, and of neighborly unity and love." ----- That statement puts you at variance with your source's claim that there was no evidence for the Tradition until the Fourth Century, a full one-hundred years later than you say the Tradition emerged. [I][/I] Good day, sir. [/QUOTE]
