The Pope is the head of the Catholic Church and acts as God's representative on earth, despite being an office marked by hatred, intolerance and unchristian ideals for much of it's history.
The current Pope since 2013 is Pope Francis I, who, unlike some of his predecessors, he appears less tied to the rigid traditions and formalism that have long characterized Roman Catholicism. His emphasis on humility, care for the poor, and mercy over strict adherence to dogma might indicate a move toward a more Christ-like posture.
The Popes can be seen as false prophets.
