Peter was never in Rome! I realize this statement destroys much of Catholicism's tradition.....but "C'est la vie"!

LOL. Yes, all the Christian writers of the 1st-4th centuries who all asserted that Peter was in Rome really botched that one, didn't they? They should've consulted Diego1618 2000 years later, who is mystically endowed with infallible knowledge of the fact.

What skin off your nose is Peter in Rome, anyway? You can admit he was in Rome without believing in the Papacy you know....just ask the Orthodox.

I mean really...let's not go burning down all of history to make a theological point.

Yes, that's strange.

C'mon...Claud. You and I both know there was a "Simon" in Rome. The question is.....which Simon?

You know....it really isn't that big of a deal....except you folks must prove he was there.....or your Papacy come tumblin' down.

It's really kind of comical because scripture really does tell us where he was.....and it "wasn't" Rome! It is a fairly easy task to discredit this tradition of yours. In all actuality....it's a fairly easy task to discredit your entire theology....come to think of it!
