    If we want better Popes, we need to be better Catholics. Most people that call themselves Catholic aren't even following the faith as they should.

    I will not listen to the Pope if it contradicts what our Lord, says and if it leads me to sin?

      If you did not listen to the pope then you are not the follower of Jesus Christ because is the head of the catholic church which He build ONLY ONE CHURCH through His Apostle Peter only, and the successors right from His Apostle Peter.
      Luke 10:16 - our Lord Jesus told to His Apostles "he who hears you hears Me and He who rejects you rejects Me and he who rejects Me rejects HIM who sent Me".
      Mathew 16:18-19 - our Lord Jesus Christ gave the authority and power to His Apostle Peter saying "you are Peter, and on this rock I will build MY CHURCH and the powers of death shall not prevail against it. I will give you the key of heaven and whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven".
      Luke 10:19 - Jesus say "behold, I have given you authority to tread upon serpents and scorpions and over all the power of the enemy and nothing shall hurt you".
      Luke 9:2 - and He sent them out to preach the Kingdom of God and to heal.
      Luke 9:5 - Jesus told to His Apostles "and wherever they do not receive you when you leave that town shake off the dust from your feet as a testimony against them".

      John 6:51 - Jesus say "I am the living bread which came down from heaven, if any one eats of this bread he will live forever and the bread which I shall give for the life of the world is MY FLESH".
      John 10:9-10-11 - Jesus told us "I am the door, if any one enters by Me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture. The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I came that they may have life and have it abundantly. I am the good Shepherd. The good Shepherd lays down His life for the sheep".
      John 10:25-26 - Jesus say "I told you and you do not believe. The works that I do in My Father's name, they bear witness to Me; but you do not believe, because you do not belong to My Sheep".

    I think the ‘list’ of popes is better celebrated in St John Lateran - the papal cathedral of Rome - in mosaic portraits in roundels placed around the inside of the building.

    If Simon's confession is the rock on which Jesus's Church is built, why did Jesus change Simon's name to Rock? If Simon's NOT the rock, it makes NO SENSE to change his name to Rock.

      Our Lord Jesus Christ is the Head of the Catholic church and He teaches us in
      John 7:24 - "do not judge by appearances but judge with right judgment".
      Our Lord Jesus Christ teaches to His Apostles and the popes
      Luke 6:22-23 -"blessed are you when men hate you and when they exclude you and revile you and cast out your name as evil, on account of the Son of man. Rejoice in that day, and leap for joy, for behold, your reward is great in heaven, for so their fathers did to the prophets".
      Luke 6:27-28-29 -"but I say to you that hear, love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who abuse you. To him who strikes you on the cheek, offer the other also and from him who takes away your coat do not withhold even your shirt".
      Mathew 12:35-36-37 - Jesus told us "the good man out of his good treasure bring forth good and the evil man out of his evil treasure bring forth evil. I tell you, on the day of judgment men will render account for every careless word they utter for by your words. You will be justified and by your words you will be condemned".

      ​​@@marymargarette4289We KNOW Jesus is the Head of His Body, the Church. But a physical, visible Body with an invisible Head is a monstrosity . Jesus also gave His Body the Church a visible Head. Cephas is even very close to the Greek word for "head," [cephalas,].
