That's why the Catholics have a guy in charge who infallibly tells you how to interpret the damn thing. Instead of having every Tom, Dick and Harry have a stab at misunderstanding scripture.


It's a good thing there's always exactly one pope.


Well that's provably false.. there've been three popes[0] and zero popes happen now and then (2025[1], 2013[2], 2005, 1978..)

[1]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pope_Leo_XIV

[2]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pope_Francis


That was the joke.


Thanks <3


Okay, where's the "falsehoods programmers believe about ..." article for popes?


Not that that stops individual Catholics from having their own opinions anyway. It's fractal cherry picking.
