And I really wish you Protestants would study up on Greek and Aramaic. In Greek, "petros" is the masculine and "petra" is the feminine. Tell me why Matthew would choose a feminine name to describe a male adult? Also...Jesus would have been speaking Aramaic to Simon Peter in this instance. In Aramaic, there is only ONE word for rock: kephas.

Did you not see where I ascribed the gender to each word. All things "attached" to the earth in Greek are FEMININE. Christ is the figurative FOUNDATION stone of the church! It's not literal! It doesn't matter what gender the word is!

I'm not Protestant. Baptists didn't come out of Catholicsm. We were here first and you killed 50 million of us because we re-baptized Catholics. Read a book (Foxe's Book of Martyrs).
