	Pope Peter - Uncyclopedia
		Peter is often depicted in art as holding the keys to the kingdom of heaven, but this is also unlikely, as Peter was prone to losing things (in his abundant folds of skin), and electronic automobile ignition systems were not invented until the 12th century AD.
		Peter couldn’t fathom the idea, but sure enough, on a conjugal visit to his wife’s prison cell, Peter decided to smuggle her out of jail by stuffing her directly into his mouth.
		Peter doesn’t mention fasting in either of his two books in the Bible nor does any other book mention him fasting, even though the rest of Jesus’ disciples are cited in the Bible clearly fasting with Jesus.

	St. Peter's - Guide to Basilica & Square (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		In this basilica, Peter's tomb, closed on three sides, was open toward the East and the faithful could see it until the time of Pope Gregory the Great (590-604), when the pavement was raised and an altar built over the tomb, over which another was later built by Callistus II (1119-1124).
		Peter's Square has the shape of an immense ellipse (the visitor who stands in one of the two centers of this ellipse, marked by two white disks, one on each side of the obelisk, sees a single row of columns), 320 m.
		Pilgrims arriving to visit St. Peter's have the impression they are welcomed by the two immense arms of the colonnade which embrace the square, an image of the church welcoming all her faithful.

	The Role of Peter
		Peter replied, “Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.” Jesus agreed with Peter’s statement and used it to teach that He Himself will be the rock, the foundation, upon which the Church will be built.
		Peter may have visited Rome, but to confer on him the position held by Catholicism is, as we will now see, at best an argument from silence and at worst, a complete rejection of the entire thrust of New Testament teaching.
		Peter’s argument is accepted, but it is a case of one man among equals, not one man in a position of papal supremacy.

		That night she saw in a vision two old men dressed in white telling her that her prayers were answered, and she would be given a son, and he would be called Peter, after the apostle, for he would be a Father of a whole nation.

		The claim that Peter is the rock on which the Church is built is based on a passage in Matthew 16:18.
		The doctrine that Peter is the rock on which the Church is built is an outright denial of Jesus Christ as Head of the Church - a usurpation of deity making Jesus only the "fruit of thy (Mary's) womb Jesus" instead of the Son of God.

		Pope Benedict XVI also received his papal ring, which was forged with an image of St. Peter on his boat with fishing nets.

		Peter's call to be a shepherd, which we heard in the Gospel, comes after the account of a miraculous catch of fish: after a night in which the disciples had let down their nets without success, they see the Risen Lord on the shore.

	Was Saint Peter the first Pope?
		But while Peter was central in the early spread of the gospel (part of the meaning behind Matthew 16:18-19), the teaching of Scripture, taken in context, nowhere declares that he was in authority over the other apostles or over the Church (having primacy) (see Acts 15:1-23; Galatians 2:1-14; 1 Peter 5:1-5).
		Rather there is only one reference in Scripture of Peter writing from “Babylon,” a name sometimes applied to Rome, found in 1 Peter 5:13; primarily upon this and the historical rise of the influence of the Bishop of Rome comes the Roman Catholic Church teaching of the primacy of the Bishop of Rome.
		However, Scripture shows that Peter’s authority was shared by the other apostles (Ephesians 2:19-20) and the “loosing and binding” authority attributed to him was likewise shared by the local churches, not just their church leaders (see Matthew 18:15-19; 1 Corinthians 5:1-13; 2 Corinthians 13:10; Titus 2:15; 3:10-11).

	Simon Peter: A Pope for All Seasons - June 1998 Issue of St. Anthony Messenger Magazine Online
		Peter’s modern-day successor, Pope John Paul II, is a positive model for many who like his no-nonsense way of handling controversial issues and theologians; a negative model for others who lament his allegedly tightfisted, authoritarian rule.
		To enter Peter’s world is to replenish one’s sense of the sacred, obscured in the fog of contemporary secularism—God’s presence in the Church, the forgiveness of sin, the power of divine grace.
		Beyond Peter’s skills as a leader lay the magnetic humanity of the man. He was colorful, comical, spontaneous, capable of colossal moral failure yet resilient to the point of heroism, brimming with enthusiasm for life and for Christ.

	Was Peter the first Pope
		Of course to simply prove Peter was the leader of the early Christians does not necessarily imply that there would be a leader for each successive age with Peter’s authority.
		Peter is placed first when it comes to the list of the twelve original apostles, however, James becomes a believer after the resurrection, and interestingly appears to be the leader, and Paul affirms it by placing his name first on the list.
		At one time Peter was probably in Rome, for he mentions it in 1 Peter 5:13: She who is in Babylon, chosen together with you, sends you her greetings, and so does my son Mark.
