You can never tell. When you think the Pope means one thing some Catholic will come along and tell you you are wrong.
If you then change your mind to agree with thge first Catholic another Catholic will come along and tell you you are still wrong.
ROTFL! Welcome to my world!

That's so true.......
I think if they're fair-minded, Protestants here will admit that this can happen with Protestants as well. Each Protestant has their own take on things based on their personal interpretation of Scripture.
With Catholics, I think you will also find differences because not all Catholics know Catholic teaching 100% and are therefore misinformed (I'm sure I sometimes say things that aren't accurate wrt Church teaching).
I just think we're going to find this in every denomination.
