Catholic historian, Bishop Lewis Du Pin (d. c. 1725), wrote; ‘Sadly, the catalogues of Bishop Eusebius are forgeries or inventions of later times’. ‘De Antiqua Ecclesiae Disciplina’, Bishop Lewis Du Pin (Folio, Paris, 1686) - http://www.vatileaks.com/_blog/Vati_Leaks/post/Mythical_Vatican_predecessors/ ‘As for the pretend catalogues of succeeding bishops of the different assemblies from the days of the apostles, exhibited by some ecclesiastical writers, they are filled up by forgeries and later inventions. Thus diocesan bishops came in, whose offices are considered as corruptions or dishonest applications: as dictated by the necessities of the church, or of instances of worldly ambition’. ‘The Authentic and Acknowledged Standards of the Church of Rome’, J. Hannah D.D., 1844, p. 414 http://www.vatileaks.com/_blog/Vati_Leaks/post/Mythical_Vatican_predecessors/ Then, early in the 16th Century, a strange document appeared called the ‘Liberian Catalogue’ and it purported to record the lineage of popes ‘from St. Peter to Pope Liberius’ (366). However, in later times the Vatican admitted that that document was of ‘a suspicious nature and not deemed reliable’,* it being just another of hundreds of Vatican forgeries. Catholic historian, Bishop Lewis Du Pin (d. c. 1725), added; ‘Unfortunately, the Liberian Catalogue is not genuine’** and by such false documents does the Vatican claim ‘apostolic succession’. However, Erasmus got it right when he frankly admitted, ‘Succession itself is imaginary’,***

Louis Ellies Dupin was never a priest or bishop. He was a Gallican anti-Papist who was censured and thrown out of the University of Paris. Also, the quote from Erasmus is fraudulent, he died in 1536, and one may not pull a short line "succession itself is imaginary" - without its context, and without accurate reference.
