> you get to sit in a special section & line up to get a personal blessing & kiss his ring

I, John, am the one who heard and saw these things.
And when I had heard and seen them,
I fell down to worship at the feet of the angel
who had been showing them to me.
But he said to me, "Do not do it! I am
a fellow servant with you and with
your brothers the prophets and
of all who keep the words of this book.
Worship God!"

Revelation 22:8-9

Boy, you are really slipping. That post didn't even RHYME! :-)

Also, you should have gone with this one:

And as Peter was coming in, Cornelius met him, and fell down at his feet, and worshipped him. But Peter took him up, saying, Stand up; I myself also am a man. (Acts 10:25-26)

But be at peace, we do not worship the Pope. (No!!) It is just a sign of respect, especially respect for the authority of a bishop. It's like saluting an officer in the armed forces.

We only worship God. (Some people, however, come close to worshiping Maria Sharapova, Anna K, etc.)
