Is the pope elected by unanimous vote or majority vote?

It's not required to be unanimous (as even just one gadfly could hold the Church hostage indefinitely). I think it's something like a two-thirds majority.

Well, then, what is the RCC’s problem with sola Scriptura and the fact that people can come to different interpretations of Scripture then?

Surely it is spelled out in the CCC; isn't it??

Or do THOSE things just pertain to layman?
