Catholics do not worship the Pope.
Yes, many of them do. I used to date a guy who was Catholic and we used to have religious 'debates' over Salvation. When I asked him if he was a Christian, he said "no, I'm a Catholic" so I asked him if the Pope died for him, or did Jesus Christ. He considered the Pope to be his "holy father" and I explained that the Bible warns that we are to "call no man father but me." He tells us that He is a "jealous God." When I quit dating him, he was still lost in his sin.
