As I said before, check out respected Protestant Bible scholars like D. A. Carson in the Expositor’s Bible Commentary, [Grand Rapids: Zondervan Books]. They agree that by the time of the New Testament, there wasn't any difference in referent between petra and petros.
You're not helping your argument by repeating stuff that demonstrates ignorance of Koine Greek. There was a major shift of semantic fields between the Attic and the Koine, and between Koine and Modern Greek.
Assuming the Greek of Homer, Lucian, and Kazantzakis are interchangeable is like assuming the same of Geoffrey Chaucer and George Washington. It just makes people roll their eyes, iscool.
So what??? That doesn't mean there's any truth to it...
The Bible doesn't need to be corrected, but your grammar and lexicon need to be corrected.
I'm not too worried about grammar...Nitpickers usually have issues of their own...
Lexicon??? Which Lexicon do you think is the right one??? How many Lexicons disagree with Petros and Petra???

I'm not the least bit concerned about Koine Greek or your philosophers...I read the bible...
The Koine Greek issue has been settled for years...You can reinvent the wheel if you want to but the scriptures and Lexicons are clear that Peter is Petros and Jesus is Petra...
