St. Athanasius on Papacy?

score:3

Accepted answer

St. Robert Bellarmine, On the Roman Pontiff bk. 1 ch. 10 "A Third Question is Proposed, and the Monarchy of Peter is Proved from the Citation of the Gospel According to Matthew 16":

St. Athanasius wrote both in his name and in that of the Synod of Alexandria: โ€œYou are Peter, and upon your foundation the pillars of the Church, that is the bishops, are strengthened.โ€ Athanasius elegantly makes Peter the foundation, upon which the Bishops rest and upon which as pillars, the whole building has been placed.
