According to my research the apostle Peter was chosen as the first Pope for the reason that he was anointed. Some believe that Pope's shouldn't marry because the apostle Peter wasn't married but there's a scripture in the bible that states that Jesus cured Peter's mother-in-law of a grievous sickness. Check out these scriptures:
