And the Pope cannot change what the Church teaches.

What the RCC teaches has changed many times, exactly BY many different popes.

That’s how they added saint hailing and rosary prayers, things that didn’t exist at the biblical church stage. Rome is looked to in order to set the doctrinal tone, that’s just the nature of that worship community. If Rome gets things bad wrong, then all following Rome will get it bad wrong too. Now this might be a tempest in a teapot, but please my fellow Christians (whether in the Roman Catholic part of Christendom or elsewhere) don’t capitulate on language and call these grim buggerers gay. They are not. It does them no favor or mercy to buy into the devil’s sugar coating.

That is simply false and you cannot and will not back it up

You may not be making adequate distinctions between dogmas de Fide, doctrines, and disciplines.

After all, a Pope's opinions are not infallible --- not even his theological opinions.
