Oh, so when it’s Catholics, hey, what’s a few bad popes among friends? Boys will be boys, dontcha know?

But when it’s Protestants, then they lives must be impeccable, purer than the new driven snow, more righteous than even Jesus.

Problem is, the self-righteous religious of Jesus’ day crucified Him, not recognizing Him and thinking in their delusion that He was wrong.

Sounds a lot like most religious organizations today.

Absolutely not O.K.......but in NO CASE did any of the misbehaving Popes err in matters of faith and morals.....they didn't remove any books from the Bible, didn't try to incorrectly reinterpret scripture and NEVER tried to change any of the church's teachings.....Like the Eucharist, for example.....unlike some people I've read about.
