Ok... I'll stop confusing you with the facts.
Weird stance but ok... at least your being honest with yourself.
It's simple the pope was the top authority then, and as the catholic church evolved this did not change.
For The Eastern Othrodox Church... the Pope was the head, the leader and the most important religious leader, but isn't anymore.
Which is the original? Pretty obvious answer there.
Keep in mind that the Eastern Othrodx Church in fact argues that the church existed, it just was there church and not the Catholics then the catholics branced off them.. Not that no such church existed.
