[MarkBsnr]

The title pope, once used with far greater latitude (see below, section V), is at present employed solely to denote the Bishop of Rome, who, in virtue of his position as successor of St. Peter, is the chief pastor of the whole Church, the Vicar of Christ upon earth.

Negatory. The lead bishop of the Copts, and the lead bishop of the Greek Orthodox in Alexandria are both titled Pope.

If you indeed reject the notion that the pope is the supreme head of the church, I am glad to hear it. But it is official Roman Catholic doctrine, easily found with any search of the term.

Pull it out of the Catechism and let's discuss official doctrine. New Advent is good, and more accurate than, say, Wikipedia, but it is not official doctrine.

Ok, Baltimore Catechism:

“Question: Who is the visible Head of the Church?
Answer: Our Holy Father the Pope, the Bishop of Rome, is the Vicar of Christ on earth and the visible Head of the Church. “
