I can't speak for god or anything

- the guy speaking for god

I'm not religious so correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think the Pope is a prophet? Like yeah he's the official leader of the Catholic Church but I don't think they believe that he convenes with god... I could be wrong though.

[–] Earflap@reddthat.com 12 points 1 month ago

He is not a prophet but is supposed to have the "ear of god" and is his chosen representative in modern times. It really depends who you ask though, because all this shit is made up.

In Catholic thought, the Pope is considered somewhat of an intermediary between God and mankind. One of the Latin names for the pope is Pontifex Maximus (also origin of the word pontiff and pontificate), which means something like "supreme bridge builder", as in bridge between God and Earth.

There's basically two things:

  • the Pope can make no mistake when talking on behalf of the whole church;
  • the Pope is assisted by the holy spirit when interpreting the word of God

LITERALLY God’s designated representative

Isn't he also the king of the vatican? Kings are traditionally ordained by God
