Hey Pope!
not nice, jerk------the real Dante almost faced
the inquisition-----I think----I am not sure----but
that jerk put an ex-pope in hell BTW----the real Dante
was in love with a child. Her name just slipped my mind---
give me a moment
The Pope is an antiquated office. The Pope has no special channel to the imaginary god of christianity. He just has a claim to the 'seat of Peter'
Peter----according to the NT-----is the heir to Jesus----
sorta. So stated by Jesus himself. Christianity is a
religion. Popes are not just anyone-----they got very good
marks in school. Their opinions are important.
Started by Jesus? Jesus was a Jew. He preached to Jews
Peter was a jew too. Have you ever read anything other than comic books. Peter was a jew-----he lived up north
in Israel and was a fisherman of the Kineret (sea of galilee)---
As far as we know---Jesus had no children of his own----
as far as we know----he liked Peter Peter means rock
in ----greek? ------he was also named 'SIMON'------<<his
jewish name. There is a poetic allusion in the NT---in which
Jesus names Peter the foundation "rock" of his church.
It is all very poetic and evocative of the poetry of David----who
referred to himself-----somewhere-----I forgot where---as
a "cornerstone" <<< a very important architectural feature---it is weight bearing. Pay attention Dante was a poet too
