The Pope has no power over me. He may be able to issue edicts to Catholic priests, but ordinary Catholics have no obligation to follow his commands.

Respectfully....yes they do per Unam Sanctam. This is something many Roman Catholics have never heard before.

It's always interesting to watch Roman Catholic apologists try to excuse this.
