The first Protestant pope

[SSTeacher]

I reckon that if we Protestants ever get around to electing our own pope the opening lines of his first encyclical will likely be borrowed from Whitman:

Do we contradict ourselves? Very well, we contradict ourselves. We are large. We contain multitudes.:dancing:

But what name would the first Protestant pope choose? Help me out, here.

Nominally,

Wow… this thread is pretty offensive and uncharitable.

Non Catholic Christians would not elect a “Pope.” And even if some “way out there” folks tried, I would not follow them or such a man. I would continue to believe the Bible.

Nah. We’ve had worse on here.

Most of us in this thread are joking around.

I read an article once in Christianity Today that suggested maybe it’s time for a Protestant pope.

Pope John Ankerberg

Pope John Ankerberg

A protestant minister cousin of mine “charitably” gave my parents one of Ankenberg’s “encyclicals.” My cousin must have thought my parents could use some consolation since I’ve crossed the Tiber.
