7. When Paul got to Rome He summoned the Jews [Acts 28:17] and they had heard little about this new sect and wanted to hear more [verses 21-22]. Don't you think that by 60 A.D. that the Apostle Peter, being a Jew himself as well as their designated Apostle, would have mentioned something about Our Saviour......if he had been in and about Rome?
8. Paul remained in Rome in his own house for 2 years [Acts 28:30] writing four more books (mentioned earlier in 1438 & 1450) never once mentioning Peter.
9. He was released but back again as a prisoner about four years later(A.D. 65). At his trial it is noted in [II Timothy 4:16] that no man stood with me....all men in Rome forsook me and he prayed to God that they be forgiven. Well, I guess that Peter must have forsaken Paul.....if he had been in and about Rome.....at that time!

What a great post! Especially the points made above.
