My Cross-Examination questions to Perplexity

These are my four questions:
  1. I have noticed that it appears that you do not hold the Scriptures in the same sense as the average Christian would (inspired word of God). If I am wrong, please correct me. But working with this presupposition, my question is if we agreed that Scripture is inspired, does this affect your argument?
  2. Working with the same presupposition, my next question is, if we agreed that Scripture is inspired, how does it affect my argument?
  3. There are many Church Fathers which speak about Peter as the Rock, as a major leader (if not the leader). If the early Church did not accept this understanding, what is the source of this idea of Peter as Leader and Rock? Where did it come from?
  4. Focusing on the primary text in question (Matthew 16), how would you interpret the meaning of what Jesus says to Peter?
