“And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter (Rock, petra), and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.” Mat 6:18

Scripture clearly calls Peter the rock upon which the church will be built. If it meant what you believe, why doesn't Scripture say what you want it to mean?

he is getting his way, soon there will be no religion allowed outside of the walls of the church anyway

sounds very cultish to say “we are the only true Christians”

Scripture must interpret Scripture, and there is no Scriptural concensus to establish a man as head of the church. To build an entire ecclesiastical order based upon one Scripture verse that must be twisted and wrangled in order to set a man in such and exalted, even worshipped position, instead of Jesus Christ verse is the gravest of all error.
