| Peter - the "Rock" of the Church
I believe the key for this was the slant to Roman doctrine... In this movie, Peter is clearly represented as more than just another elder in the church. It tells the story of a man struggling to meet his full potential of "the Rock on which the church is built"... He quotes (misinterprets) this verse in the movie. Later, it shows Peter as the "Pastor" in Rome, right before he was crucified - this, to me, clearly implies that Peter, was in fact, the first pope... which, we all believe is Roman false doctrine. All I'm saying is that it is imiportant to point this out to your children, etc... when watching.
