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: β€œYou are Peter, and upon your foundation the pillars of the Church, that is the bishops, are strengthened.” Athanasius elegantly makes Peter the foundation, upon which the Bishops rest and upon which as pillars, the whole building has been placed.
