“Please direct that also to the various Orthodox churches, who also do not believe the pope is God’s chosen one.”

Actually, ALL Orthodox Churches believe the Bishop of Rome has a singularly important role to play in the Church. They disagree on exactly what that role is or how it manifests itself in the life of the Church, but they all agree it exists. Hence, the pan-Orthodox synod a year or two ago couldn’t be am ecumenical council - because the pope wasn’t involved.

It would help if you had a clue before you posted. Work on that.

LOL! So you admit they all believe your pope is not the leader of the Church on Earth? HA HA!

Enjoy your sect.
