"a fact known to Jesus when he was appointed first Pope in Caesarea Philippi, is being unsuccessfully used in an attempt to impeach his Papacy. Were you to attempt to try this in any court of relevance you would be disqualified for lack of standing."

Would Matthew 23:9 be admissible in your court? I mean, the fact that Pope means father or papa. "Do not call anyone on earth your father; for one is your Father, He who is in heaven". In fact most of what Jesus denounced the Pharisees over could be applicable to Catholics today, with their legalistic and overly complicated explanation of everything they do that does not correspond to the simple teachings of Christ.
