Nuclear Crime Attacks Against Holy St. Peters Church, the Vatican: Discovery of 'Hot' Radiation Evidence 1 of 256 Nuclear Crime Attacks Against Holy St. Peters Church, The Vatican: Discovery of 'hot' Radiation evidence . ., © 2009, by Kenneth MacKenzie -- includes fifteen page SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES Docket No. 08-9595, PETITION FOR REHEARING OF A PETITION FOR WRIT OF CERTIORARI . INTRODUCTION: . Should the Holy St. Peters become "Nuclear Crime" cross- contaminated as the consequence of a Radiological attack against the presence of U.S. Corporations doing business in Italy and Rome, especially as the consequence of a Radiological attack against U.S. Corporations doing business in Italy and Rome, then it is certain that one fifth of the earth's population will eventually have passionate questions about the responsibility of the United States in contributing to "Nuclear Crime" cross-contamination of the Holy St. Peters. This book explains how the Holy St. Peters could become a victim of the United States wars in Italy and Rome. Petitioner Kenneth MacKenzie has therefore decided that it is worthwhile to make efforts to defend the Holy St. Peters and litigate crime tort claims against those United States Corporations most responsible for endangering the Holy St. Peters with the potential of "Nuclear Crime" cross-contamination of Holy St. Peters and the entire Vatican City-State. Plaintiff MacKenzie's legal efforts to defend the Holy St. Peters have the simple goal of seeking United Nations International Criminal Court judgments in condemnation of U.S. Corporation presence in Italy and Rome and to thereby persuade the world that U.S. Corporation presence in Italy and Rome endangers world Nuclear Peace, and that all U.S. Corporations should divest and leave Italy and Rome. MacKenzie could say much worse against the presence of U.S. commercial corporations in Italy and Rome and how their presence in Italy and Rome endangers the national security of the United States and her allies. However, MacKenzie leaves that judgment to the courts and the readers of this book. 1 of 256 2 of 256 TABLE OF CONTENTS: CHAPTER 1 . Pg. 4 .

History & Burial site of St. Peter, Saint Peter's tomb After the crucifixion of Jesus in the second quarter of the 1st century AD, it is recorded in the Biblical book of the Acts of the Apostles that one of his twelve disciples, Simon known as Peter, a fisherman from Galilee, took a leadership position among Jesus' followers and was of great importance in the founding of the Christian Church. The name Peter is "Petrus" in Latin and "Petros" in Greek, deriving from "petra" which means "stone" or "rock" in Greek. It is believed by a long tradition that Peter, after a ministry of about thirty years, traveled to Rome and met his martyrdom there. The Alter over St. Peter's burial tomb in the Basilica. According to the traditional story, Peter was executed in the year 64 AD during the reign of the Roman Emperor Nero. His execution was one of the many martyrdoms of Christians following the Great Fire of Rome. He was said to have been crucified head downwards, by his own request, near the obelisk in the Circus of Nero. This obelisk now stands in Saint Peter's Square and is revered as a "witness" to Peter's death. It is one of several ancient Obelisks of Rome. The traditional story goes on to say that Peter's remains were buried Just outside the Circus, on the Mons Vaticanus across the Via Cornelia from the Circus, less than 150 metres (490 ft) from his place of death. The Via Cornelia (which may have been known by another name to the ancient Romans) was a road which ran east-to-west along the north wall of the Circus on land now 4 of 256 5 of 256 covered by the southern portions of the Basilica and Saint Peter's Square. Peter's grave was initially marked simply by a red rock, symbolic of his name, but meaningless to non-Christians. A shrine was built on this site some years later. Almost three hundred years later, Old Saint Peter's Basilica was constructed over this site. It is possible that the exact location of Peter's grave was known with certainty by Christians throughout all this time and that therefore the traditional location of Saint Peter's tomb is, in fact, its true location. On December 23, 1950, in his pre-Christmas radio broadcast to the world, Pope Pius XII announced the discovery of Saint Peter's tomb.[9] This was the culmination of 10 years of archaeological research under the crypt of the basilica, an area inaccessible since the 9th century. The burial place appears to have been an underground vault, with a structure above it believed to have been built by Pope Anacletus in the 1st century. Human remains were discovered, but it could not be determined if they were, in fact, the bones of the Apostle Peter. Indeed, the area now covered by the Vatican City had been a cemetery for some years before the Circus of Nero was built. It was a burial ground for the numerous executions in the Circus and for many years after the burial of Saint Peter many Christians chose to be buried near him. It is likely that any excavation

Alphonsus Ihuoma ________________________________ Professor Raj Bhala (Chairperson) Date approved: May 15, 2014 ii ABSTRACT Man, as a person, is superior to the state, and consequently the good of the person transcends the good of the state. The philosopher Jacques Maritain developed his political philosophy thoroughly informed by his deep Catholic faith. His philosophy places the human person at the center of every action. In developing his political thought, he enumerates two principal tasks of the state as (1) to establish and preserve order, and as such, guarantee justice, and (2) to promote the common good. The state has such duties to the people because it receives its authority from the people. The people possess natural, God-given right of self-government, the exercise of which they voluntarily invest in the state.
