John 1:42 happened long before Matthew 16. So, again, what are you trying to say? Peter having his name changed presumeably because there are two Simons in the group doesn't bug my britches any. And it certainly doesn't bear on word use in Matthew 16.

How do you know that you alone are right and more than a billion Christians are all wrong?

...presumeably because there are two Simons in the group...

Why 'presume' (falsely) when the most important reason for the name change is listed explicitly in Mt 16:18?

What is your authority for knowing that you are right and everyone else is wrong? What if REGGIE claims that same authority? Would we then have to leave you behind and start worshipping him?

Shudder the thought!

I'm waiting, Havoc. What is it? There must be some power by which you treat all others as dirt beneath your omniscient feet.
