Well I’m no pope. (Though I am one of a nation of priests.)

I certainly don’t claim to be the “Cardinal Archbishop of Rome” nor “superior to all other bishops” (as 2ndDivisionVet put it above).

But I can read the Bible as well as you, he, and Pope Francis can. And 2ndDivisionVet can read, understand, and quote Proverbs 13:24 as well as anybody. And he doesn’t claim to be a pope either.

Sorry, I quoted you in #21 but failed to include you in the ping.
