Certainly Caesarea Phillipi has a lot of rocks lying around, but Christ wasn't talking to them ('tell these stones to become bread') He was speaking directly ('thou') to St. Peter.

Christ used quite different language when he was speaking in metaphors - as in the parables.

By the way the word translated as "church" means people or a group of people basically a meeting of people not a building.. then AND now.. A synagouge can be a building a church cannot.. biblically speaking..
