The reality is that the Pope is a dictator. If you are a Catholic, and many on this board are, you get no say on who is elected Pope as only a few select Cardinals get to vote. The only good news is that we get to select the religion and don't have to follow the Catholic Church.
"select the religion"
What is religion?
I only know me and my personal relationship with a higher power that we call God. I don't need someone to tell me what to believe. God teaches me.
The religion I am speaking about is one of the different kinds of Christianity out there such as Baptist. But the truth is that we must confess our sins and accept Jesus as our savior.
We have a responsibility to cleanse it and return it to the line of Peter, the first head of the church. Centuries of theological debate by gifted geniuses and inspired saints are behind the dogma, which has addressed cults and pagans and relativism and many heresies over time. Pope doesn't decide dogma, pope isn't infallible in everything he says, pope isn't supreme leader; only those who (mistakenly, imho) swear obedience are bound to a person like that.
All the errors and heresies the current unelected (yes, there's been fraud there for at least as long as here) man in the seat has been spouting are NOT and never will be dogma. He speaks openly against what the Catholic Church holds true, and the Church has not changed its stances just because he's losing it astray. Just like how, in the USA and other countries, there is a plain and open disregard for the written law, the church is being corrupted and violating its own laws.
You are criticizing in ignorance of the law there, which is understandable given the amount of lies continuously propagated by evil, which clearly still sees the Catholic Church as its greatest enemy, even thought it has been penetrated to the core by corrupt men and women. Makes one think, why is that? If it were what you in your error accuse it of being, why would evil not help it further... interesting
No cleansing something that is corrupt in it's very conception. The concept of a pope is itself blasphemous and antichrist. We go to him to get to Christ? Explain that like I'm 5 because I thought Christ dwells with us personally when we are born again by faith in Him and is our link to God. What's with this additional link?
edit- and as usual they downvote with zero arguement against what I say. Cmon guys I'd like to learn too, correct me if I'm wrong on something.
The Roman Catholic church sees the pope as the representative of Christ on earth. But you are right because the church is Jesus himself and it is because he gave up his life in order to pay for our sins.
I thought every believer was to be a representative of Christ on earth. Why the distinction?
Yeshua AKA Jesus is the prophesied chief cornerstone, not Peter.
Peter was Cephas or pebble and that is the key to unlocking this parable.
Jesus says, "You're a Pebble, Peter. Upon this rock (me), I will build my church."
And what did he tell the "first head of the church" not even 5 verses later?
Matthew 16:23
But he turned, and said unto Peter, Get thee behind me, Satan: thou art an offence unto me: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but those that be of men.
