It would be licit, according to custom, to hold the Jews in perpetual servitude because of their crime.
~ St. Thomas Aquinas
GEE WHAT CRIME, DURKA?
Jews are slayers of the Lord, murderers of the prophets, enemies and haters of God, adversaries of grace, enemies of their fathers’ faith, advocates of the devil, a brood of vipers, slanderers, scoffers, men of darkened minds, the leaven of Pharisees, a congregation of demons, sinners, wicked men, haters of goodness!
~ St. Gregory of Nyssa
Crucifiers of Christ ought to be held in continual subjection.
Peter is the ROCK of the church because Jesus said so.
And I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome it.
"I TELL YOU THAT YOU ARE ROCK AND ON THIS ROCK I WILL BUILD MY CHURCH AND THE GATES OF HELL WILL NOT OVERCOME IT"
Jesus renamed Simon.
"Peter" (Aramaic: Cephas or Greek: Petros) means literally means "rock" in Koine Greek, the language which the New Testament was written. It was not a regular name at the time, but Jesus made it so by changing Simon's name to Peter. The Greek words petrosand petra where masculine and feminine forms of the same word in Koine Greek. In Attic Greek they were two different words but that was not the language of the New Testament.
Did you mean to say Roman Catholic Church? You left out the Roman part, that's important.
What world power killed the Christ? I can't remember right now. It'll come to me.

The Jews and the non-Catholic Romans.
It's Roman because Peter was in...ROME.
Peter means ROCK.
Peter wasn't his real first name. Jesus renamed him to ROCK.
HMMMMMMMMM.
So Jesus is not the rock? Peter is?
It was Peter that was the stumbling block to the Jews!
Peter is that rock that destroyed the Nebuchadnezzar statue and became a mountain.
Peter was what Moses struck in the desert so that the Jews could have water.
Makes so much sense now, thanks!
Jesus is the ROCK of salvation.
Peter is the ROCK of the church because Jesus said so.
