THE ANSWER WAS… G….All of the above are
true.
According to Catholic Encyclopedia: “St. Anselm of Canterbury (1093-1109)
testified to the supremacy of the Roman Pontiff in his writings (in Matthew 16)
and by his acts. When pressed to surrender his right of appeal to Rome, he
answered the king in court”
“You wish me to
swear never, on any account, to appeal in England to Blessed Peter or
his Vicar; this, I say, ought not to be commanded by you, who are a
Christian, for to swear this is to abjure Blessed Peter; he who abjures Blessed
Peter undoubtedly abjures Christ, who made him Prince over his Church.” (St. Anselm)
