St. Peter (Simone of
There is no one substantial fact that I can put forward that St. Peter is buried in
All I can do is follow the research of those biblical scholars that have spent century’s research this. I can also assure you that I have spent over three hours research this afternoon on this.
The most important point I can make to prove that peter did live in
I have no doubt that St. Peter was martyred, and hence since he can be placed in
As to the place of his burial, I can not put any hard evidence to this, I point out for some reason the empire Constantine I Died 337AD commissioned a basilica on Vatican hill, This basilica could have been built with greater ease to the south this site but it may have been built on the Vatican hill as there was a small Aedicula there that could have marked his place of interment or the place of his crucifixion. On the other hand there is some evidence to say to his remains and those of Paul where placed Ad Catacumbas, but then again there is a belief that his remains where never collected after his crucifixion.
There where a box of bones recovered from under the alter in St. Peters in 1939 that is believed to be his but there is no evidence as yet to support this.
I accept Peter as the first Pope simply as he was chosen by Christ to be so. At this time there was only one church and it the universal Christian church hence a Catholic Church

Hi Stephen, all this doesn't prove that todays Catholic Church is the same Church Jesus started.
I'm sorry but I believe that too many things have been added( Rosery, Pergatory, praying to Saints, Canonisation, Penance, ect.).
It annoys me that society thinks that the only real Church is the Catholic Church.

Mate this is not trying to prove that there is only one catholic and apostolic church in fact the research I did was to show you that St. Peter was in Rome.
I can not keep trying to respond to these things all the time from you Doug. ass i seem to just be repeating myself to you all the time. I have responded to you about saints and the rosary and the fact that Catholics are murderers. The crusades is no proof that Catholics are murderers it is just proof that Christians are murderers as it was Christendom that went on the crusades and at that time there was no protestant churches.
I don't know if your drinking or stoned when you post some of your comments but you are a bigot and bigots are the kind of people that bought about the Holocaust. You truly need to get some guidance from a preacher or someone outside of the crazy right wing religious nutters you are reading on the internet.
I could get into all the other things you have got into here but I am tied of trying to explain all this to you, what I will say is that you think the catholic church is like the deviance code paints it, that book is fiction and not good or well written fiction at that, and it idea of the church is total bulshit!

Stephen,
You mentioned the holocaust, but wasn't Hitler a Catholic ?
And , no I'm not drunk or stoned, and I agree that all the Church denominations have their faults, which is why I do not call myself by any denomination.
There is absolutely no credible evidence to support the claim that Peter was in Rome. In fact it is doubtful that he was ever in Rome. Peter was the apostle to the Jews. See Galatians 2:9. Rome was a gentile city. He would have no reason to travel to Rome. Paul, who was an apostle to the gentiles (see Romans 11:13), greeted over 25 Christians living in Rome at the end of his letter to the Romans, but he did not greet Peter. See Romans 16. If Peter was in fact the Bishop, Paul would certainly have greeted him. He did not greet Peter because Peter was not in Rome.
You say I'm a bigot, well maybe I am.
If you are inferring that I've read the Da-Vinci code, well I have not.
It is clear that you are obviously upset by the reality of the situation and are unwilling to prove your Catholic beliefs using the Bible as the only reference. So I will leave you alone.

Hitler was baptised a Roman Catholic but in fact was atheist. This is like saying Stalin was an orthodox priest because he attended a seminary in his youth.
For a christen you seem to lack all christen attunes. You bring up biblical quotes and do not take into account the rest of the paragraph or chapter they are in. The books of the new testament were written 70 year after Christ died, the books of the bible were set in place by Constantine in 300AD, then not translated to English till 16th century, yet you accept the verbatim. No biblical student or teacher takes them as literally what Christ did or said for the fact they not even original texts let alone in the original language they were written in.
