Why did Peter who was a Jew choose a pagan to be the second Pope?

After St. Peter, St. Linus became pope of the Church. Whether Peter specially choose Linus is debatable since his successor was chosen in his absence: Peter was dead when Linus became pope. Popes are now elected by a conclave. At the beginning of the Church it might have been different, as Matthias had been elected by the apostles by drawing straws, but as to Linus' election, little is known about procedure. Whatever the case, Peter was a Jew only by ancestry, not by Faith, for he had become a Christian. Linus was not a pagan, but a Christian as well. Therefore, even if Peter had specifically requested Linus as the next pope, he was only choosing another Christian he felt capable of the office.
