Tell us something.: I used to be a regular then I took up the bassoon. Bassoons don't have a lot of chiff. Not really, I have always been a drummer, and my C&F years were when I was a little tired of the drums. Now I'm back playing drums. I mist the C&F years, though.

You seldom see this name associated with the church hierarchy: Christ, the head of the Church (Eph. 5:23). If Peter was the first pope, why does the bible refer to his being married? That's not allowed.

Tsk. Tsk. I'll take the bait. I know that you know that it wasn't until one of the Gregorys (V or VI) that clerical marriage was officially banned because if you didn't know I'd be surprised.

Quite a list there. Seems they got less creative with the names as time wore on.
Anyone ever read Pope Joan? I have not, but it's supposed to be
interesting.

It was apparently one of those Gregorys who first tagged Mary Magdalene with the hooker label. I wonder what his problem was?

Does the word "blessed" in front of some of the names, such as 256 and 262, mean something special?

Darn! I'd forgotten that. Thanks. I remember this previous discussion now. But still, wasn't Peter's example good enough for a never-ending string of popes to come? Kind of a slam on the founders I'd say, unless they later decided to return to Christianity's original Enochonian and Essenistic monk roots.

I wouldn't call it a slam...more of a gradual, insidious twist. Where power issues began to supplant the ideology which originated the church, to the point of twisting the ideology into a new dogma.

...and apologies if I seem to always want to put an ugly spin on religion. I still believe a positive spirit has survived--and was present throughout-- all the nonsense, which is why I'm still trying to hang in there.

Then maybe there's hope, amongst all the twisting, that popes and priests rights will be restored (God already allowed them to marry at one time).
