I know. There are many. However we can stay with the papacy.
The lack of a centralized hierarchy in the Protestant churches is the probably the primary reason they basically became state religions; they shifted as popular cultures did. There is no biblical excuse for female clergy, for example; Jesus Christ certainly wasn’t sexist, yet he chose only male apostles (and bestowed certain powers/responsibilities on them). There certainly is no biblical justification for normalization of homosexual relations, either.
