Information About

Papacy




Historically, this office has held the title of Papa, Father in Coptic, since Papa Heracleus , 13th Alexandrine Patriarch (232-249 AD) was first to associate with the title three centuries before it was assumed by John I, The Roma n Bishop (523- 526), who ratified the Alexandrian computation of the date of Easter. Bestowing the title on Rome's Pontiff did not strip it from Alexandria's, and the Roman Catholic Church recognizes this ecclesiastical fact.http://www.amazon.com/gp/richpub/syltguides/fullview/W4O42BT6T7FQ
