Vestnik Posted September 1, 2006 Report Share Posted September 1, 2006 Re: Challenge: "Pope" as a Package Deal I also wonder if "pope" as a general term for the head of a church is accurate. I mean, is there any faith that officially uses the title "Pope"? "Pope" comes from the Lativ word for "father" ("pater"), doesn't it? Orthodox Christianity has Patriarchs, which has a similar connotation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
