POPE FICTION
HOSTED BY PATRICK MADRID
In this series Patrick Madrid
answers and refutes many misconceptions about the Papacy and the Office
of the Pope in the Roman Catholic Church. He refutes the myths of a
so-called woman pope named Joan, the accusations leveled at the Papacy
due to the Spanish Inquisition, the alleged failure of Pope Pius the XII
to do more to denounce and stop the Nazi’s. He also explains and
refutes many misconceptions about the Office of the Pope like the
difference between infallibility and and impeccability, the Scriptural
references that indicate the Apostle Peter’s designation by Christ as
the Leader or Pope of the Apostles and His Church, the scriptural
references where the Apostles handed down their authority as Bishops.
