I am a baptized Orthodox Christian and Pope has no authority over me. Whatever Pope himself might think about it.
Somebody here mentioned that Christianity is a kind of Monarchy and "this is how it works". Again, it is very sad that people do not understand the basis of their faith. The Christianity does not uphold the Master-Slave relationship. When you are saying that everybody must obey Pope you use the same logic that that Moslem used. He even asks, quite logically, why do you pray to substitutes such as Pope and Saints instead of praying to God Himself? But it is your logic, not that of Christian faith.
You think a monarch has a master-slave relationship with his subjects? What do you do when you honor Christ as King? Monarchs view their subjects as part of their extended families - at least the good ones do. Are you saying Christ is not a good King? The Pope is His Vicar. Sorry, but there's the facts.
