Just curious, do you have to listen to the pope? I mean what if you just “branch” off and not care what he says?
I mean religion is religion and sometimes people don’t agree with the leaders.
I mean the guy has been preaching all his life. How can a pope who was set up in the past based on a monarchy be able to take away someone’s title in todays day and age.
I don’t get religion, Jesus wasn’t the pope. Last I heard the pope came way later. So… like who cares ?
Honest question btw. If y’all have any good links to read why the pope has the power he does and who came up with it, that would be great.
There are teachings in the Catholic church that can be shown were taught by the Apostles. A book called The Fathers of the Church 3rd Edition was used by many Evangelists in the 60's and 70's who were looking for the first scriptures. Many of them came to convert to Catholicism, watch the show on EWTN called The Journey Home. The Pope can only speak Ex Cathedera (ie. from Peters chair) on issues of Doctrine and its only been done 2 or 3 times. they just don't go Pontificating around. 😃
