There is no “pope.” The notion emerged when Constantine judaized Christianity.

If Peter were the first “pope,” then Paul would have been wrong to rebuke him for denying fellowship to the uncircumcised (Galatians 2). Because, as the dogmatic Roman Catholic asserts, what he (Peter/pope) binds on earth, God binds in Heaven.
