St. Augustine writes (Sermon 295):
Both apostles share the same feast day, for these two were one; and even though they suffered on different days, they were as one. Peter went first, and Paul followed. And so we celebrate this day made holy for us by the apostles' blood. Let us embrace what they believed, their life, their labors, their sufferings, their preaching, and their confession of faith.

You think that's strange? Why does Martin Luther King have to share a day with Robert E. Lee and Stonewall Jackson in Virginia?

Does it have anything to do with the fact that:
Peter Paul Almond Joy Has Nuts, and,
Peter Paul Mounds Don't?
