Finally all this Peter the Roman nonsense can be put to bed.
Ah, that'll be a no. Jorge Mario Bergoglio was born to italian parents. Pope Francis I has returned to his ancestral home!!
An Italian father. But he himself wasn't born in Italy. And lastly, all of Italy isn't Rome, nor vice versa.
And next we'll hear that Francis = Peter??edit on 13-3-2013 by NOTurTypical because: (no reason given)

Petrus MEANS "rock" in Latin. It is a translation of the Aramaic word Kefa, also meaning "rock", obviously.

Houston, we have a problem. In light of the Saint Malachi prophecy about the last pope being known as "Peter the Roman" and the recently retired pope supposedly being the next to last, we are now going to see the conspiracy crowd scrambling like crazy to make any connection they can to the new pope and the name "Peter the Roman".

The apostle Peter would've scoffed at this gold-plated, costumed charade that Catholicism has become.
Mark 12:38-40 - "Beware of the scribes, which desire to walk in long robes, and love salutations in the marketplaces, And the chief seats in the synagogues, and the uppermost rooms at feasts: and for a pretence make long prayers: these shall receive greater damnation."

My source is a text message, sent from an "anonymous source" inside the Sistine Chapel.
MSM has not disclosed this info yet.
