In fact, let's take a closer look, shall we?

Exo 20:16 Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour.

Now, the claim is made--using quotation marks--that someone here said "our Jesus is a Roman Catholic subject to the silly little men in Rome!"

Yet that quote does not appear on this thread (or any other) as a comment believed by the person who posted it.

The essence of this open-ended malattribution is a smear, a bearing of false witness.

"Sad" doesn't begin to cover it.

And indeed you are correct. On the other hand it also mocks the Savior as if he could possibly be “subject” to that which he created.

On the other hand there is an exegesis that suggests such a “subjection” and that is the belief that one can create one’s own very personal Christ using one’s own individual fabricated interpretation of Holy Scripture.

He can be anything one wants him to be by simply selecting and misinterpreting selected verses out of one’s redacted Bible and claiming that by one’s own brilliance one knows that which others for 2000 years were incapable of figuring out.
