The Church likes to make a big deal out of papal succession. But in a very real way the RCC came into being with Nicea when they wrote the Apostolic Creed. That is the foundation of RCC theology. Is there a part of that you don't accept?

I am not familiar with the Nicea Creed, and I don't feel like looking it up. Most of it is probably Biblical, but much RCC theology is not Biblical.
