You're doing well.
...the pope resides in Rome....
Bzzzt. Wrong.
The center of power for the Catholic Church is Rome.
False.
All important decisions come from Rome.
False again: 25% is a failing grade.
Go to Google or Yahoo maps and look it up. The Vatican is 2.8 miles from the center of Rome. Many Catholics will refer to ‘Rome’ when refering to the Pope.
you know what they say, when in Rome do as the Romans do.
So again you can parse words but it only makes you look foolish and your argument completely useless.
