>>It is Simon Magus who was buried there<<

That is a whole lot more likely then that the apostle Peter is buried there. The 1953 find where they believe they found the apostle Peters tomb in Jerusalem is more likely. The Catholic Church has already lied about how much time Peter spent in Rome and when. Scripture proves them wrong on that.

You are wrong. Simon Magus is the person that simony is named after. I don’t think he would be buried in a Catholic Church anywhere.

The ironic thing is, they try to buttress their claim that Peter was in Rome by claiming he used “Babylon” as a code word for Rome. Which, of course, buttresses the interpretation of some that the “Babylon the Great” of Revelation is also Rome, which isn’t exactly a favorable interpretation for Catholics.

The entire religion is a lie, a myth, a farce...The Church ultimately calls itself Jesus/God...They are incapable of discussing any scripture at all...It's a foreign book to them...Reminds me of the Druids...
