Peter was pretty much a spiritual doofus.. or schelmiel.. or even schmozzle.. The Barney Fife of the New Testament.. Useing him as a model should be re-thunk... Ya think?..

I dunno, my dear brother. However, lest ye forget, Jesus Himself seems to set great store by the dude. FWIW, I don't think He would have done that, in the case of "a spiritual doofus," a "Barney Fife...."
