You can believe that all day long, but you KNOW it's not factual. Jesus gave Simon Peter the "keys to the Kingdom" and made him the ROCK on which I will build my Church. Hence, Peter is the first POPE.What denominiation are you and I will tell you who and what year our religion started. Mine started in 33 AD.

It was Peter's confession upon which the church was built, not Peter.
"upon this rock I will build my church."
Not "upon him I will build this church."
Scripture refers to Jesus as the rock and a firm faith as being sowed in perfect soil so it won't be blown away. It is our faith that is to be solid as a rock since Christ is our rock.
