How about “vetting” your incorrect stmt about pope getting funds from parishes? Fyi, bishops control all funds within their dioceses, where they have full authority. This is not a matter of financial structure. If you don’t have the founding idea of apostolic succession, it’s understandable you’d make the error of not viewing the Church as a mystical body, but the simple and secular idea of a global corporation. It does not work that way.
Some bishops do take up one annual P.P. collection.
