Given non-Catholics don’t believe in popes, why would this be surprising to you?

Given Catholics didn’t manage to have any 'scripture' about popes to place into the Book it compiled; why would this be surprising to you?

Knowing this is what non-Catholics believe is why I said that. As I said up-thread, not interested in going down the “debate” path. That horse has been beaten to death on FR a long time ago.

You don't have to like it, don't have to agree with it, but the Pope is the titular head of Christianity, in all of its forms.

We pray that our separated brethren will someday return to the fold (they will)and once again, as it was for 1,600 years, there will be a One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic church composed of ALL Christians.....worked good for 1,600 years, can work good for another ?????????zillion years.
