...according to the assumptions and opinions---that is, the "brain-washed anti-Catholic vile 'doctrines'"---that you have derived from your preferred recently-invented, man-made non-Catholic sect, anyway.
"They went everywhere preaching the gospel the Lord working with them and confirming the word with signs following"

Yes, the apostles and their successors---the bishops---did this (Ac. 15:2; 16:4).
Then you cannot claim apostolicity for you do not
You will find a great many more than apostles and bishops preaching and teaching in the NT...both men and women. Nor can you point to any succession.

Yes, your self-fulling prophecy. :luigi:
That feels like a mostly meaningless statement. Of course people who convert believe that about the Catholic Church. Otherwise, why would they convert? Or is the point that belief in the Catholic church is something that requires the grace of God? Some kind of Catholic TULIP? :idunno:

Nonsense. Just because the apostles have passed away does not mean that their ordained successors, the bishops, do not retain their (the apostles') teaching authority. See this.
Yes---and they are careful to make sure that their teaching comports in every way with that of the Church's Magisterium, that is, its teaching office consisting of the apostles and bishops (1 Tim. 4:6; cf. 1 Tim. 3:15).

Rather, a self-evident fact that you have yet to in any way disprove or refute.
Show us these successors who they are, show us when they took over
Neither is it true that they agreed on Doctrine, Paul disagreed publicly with Peter.

Not over doctrine, but rather over Peter's inconsistency in behaving according to sound doctrine---doctrine which Peter himself preached. Peter's doctrine was fine; his behavior, at one point, was incorrect.
Show us who these successors were and when they took over
His behaviour reflected a doctrinal difference, by his actions he was showing that he sided with the pharisees
Jesus said "thou art Peter and upon this rock will I build My church"
...He says nothing about a succession of holy fathers
...He says nothing about a succession of holy fathers

Paul confronted Peter because his (Peter's) behavior did not match his (Peter's) own teaching. It was a problem with his behavior, not his doctrine.
