"Tame the heretics"?? What do you suggest: burning the women who were considered witches? Salem redux?
People have FREE WILL. Why must their free will be stifled? Folks can speak with them, in a loving way, but, in the end, the choice is THEIRS, good or bad.
Are you suggesting that the role of the Pope (from the Latin for "father") be to "tame the heretics"? Would Jesus do that?
People have free will but there are consequences to choices usually. I would think the Pope would want a consistent message. He can excommunicate and defrock. It seems like a funny way to run a church (everybody designed their own Gospel).
