Chevalier Charles Coulombe on St. Peter, Bishop of Antioch?

The Chevalier is asked if there is any truth to the Eastern Orthodox claim that St Peter was the first Bishop of Antioch. He assures his questioner that it is quite true, which leads into a discussion of the establishment of the Pentarchy, the Five Ancient Patriarchs.

He and Mr Frankini end with a discussion of  Vicars of Christ, the Chevalier's history of the Popes which consists of a thumbnail biography of every Pope from St Peter on. I highly recommend it.

Comments are subject to deletion if they are not germane. I have no problem with a bit of colourful language, but blasphemy or depraved profanity will not be allowed. Attacks on the Catholic Faith will not be tolerated. Comments will be deleted that are republican (Yanks! Note the lower case 'r'!), attacks on the legitimacy of Pope Francis as the Vicar of Christ (I know he's a material heretic and a Protector of Perverts, and I definitely want him gone yesterday! However, he is Pope, and I pray for him every day.), the legitimacy of the House of Windsor or of the claims of the Elder Line of the House of France, or attacks on the legitimacy of any of the currently ruling Houses of Europe.
