Oh noes ronnierocket. She’s done pulled the “race card” equivalent about Peter being the rock. Protestants have no choice but to cower in fear when they pull that one out.

It is after all in the Bible and y’all believe in Sola Scriptura. If you claim that the RC Church does not have the keys, then who does? Did they disappear?

It's just a little odd to hear you call the Biblical account of the founding of the Church a "race card." I am sure you are not saying that Peter is a race, or that Jesus is a racist. So your point is obscure.

I do wonder why, in your opinion, Jesus actually changed Simon Bar-Jonah's name. ("Thou art Peter, but nevermind, it makes no difference, thou art NOT the Rock..." ?)

You may be making a good point, but as I said before, I am not sure what it is.

Well it's all over then...Shut 'er down...

Forget the fact that you couldn't find Peter's church in the scripture if you turned and pointed the Hubbell telescope directly at it...

Forget the fact that Peter was instructed to seek out Jews to preach to, not Gentiles...
Forget the fact that Peter was rebuked by the apostle who WAS given the duty to teach and preach to Gentiles, especially to the Gentiles in Rome...
Forget the fact that Peter wouldn't be caught dead in a long robe with red shoes and something akin to my son's first cowboy hat...

Let's forget all that and much, much more because Jesus said, 'Thou are Peter and upon this rock I will build my church'...
