... If he feels the record of history, as revealed in the Ecumenical councils is most important, the Protestant will be drawn towards Orthodox. If the Protestant is most impressed with the claims that the bishop of Rome is the God ordained successor of Peter, and their interpretation of Mt 16:18 that the church was built upon Peter himself, he will naturally defect to Catholicism.
