Definition: A person who worships a pope.
Seemed appropriate considering everything happening recently, with the death of a pope and election of a new pope.
I do want to throw a second part onto this though.
The guy who lives at the Vatican? He doesn't have the title of Pope. It's from the word Papa, meaning Father, which got shifted a bit into Pope. On the other hand, the Coptic Church has a guy in the lead who has the title of Pope. So if anyone asks you if the Pope's Catholic? Nope. The guy is Coptic. Have fun with explaining that to someone.
I'll see you again soon, with something else interesting.
