Maybe they were the keys to the Gates of Hell!!Hapsburg said:Not really, because supposedly jesus made peter his "vicar on earth", giving him the keys to the gates...and Peter's successors are the Popes. Peter was the first pope. Hell, the Papal State's name at one time was "Patrimonium Petri", "Patromony of Peter".
So, you're essentially saying that St.Peter is the antichrist, assuming christianity is right, which it isn't.
