One tradition is founded by Christ, and all others are made up.

Does yours have an unbroken lineage of succession tracing itself back to Peter, on whom Christ said he would build his church?

How do you know that Christ said that?

How do you know that Christ had the capacity to truthfully make such a claim (ie by virtue of divinity) ?

Presumably scripture, but then how do you know what is and is not scripture?

What is at the bottom of it, if not reason?
