Lot's better than going through life believing some reprobate in Rome is infallible and "another Christ."

Evidently! We actually have to confront our own sins, mistakes, and foolishnesses, instead of passing them off on some guy in Rome!

However, I wouldn't bet on getting a "bad Pope did it" pass in the afterlife.

Thankfully, mercifully, my sins are not passed off to some impostor in Rome, but to Christ alone who graciously pays for everyone of them, bringing me to repentance and obedience and gratitude, by grace alone through faith alone in Jesus Christ alone.
