Considering all the "lame" popes there have been over the centuries, perhaps it is time to rethink the validity of the papal office itself.  On the whole, a Church founded on Peter's confession makes infinitely more sense anyhow.

Additionally, curious why Cyprian warned 87 bishops at the Council of Carthage (3rd century) that none should set himself up as "bishop of bishops" --in response to then Bishop of Rome Stephen's claim to have supreme authority over other bishops from apostolic, catholic churches.
