Biblical citiations? Are there any?
although it is a fact that the pope is elected from the other cardinals, he is inspired by the holy spirit.
Charles Manson told his followers that he was able to speak with God. So did David Koresh and Pyotr Kuznetsov. What makes the Pope so special that his claims are true?
