Was given my final project in a class recently, and I've decided what I'm going to do for it.

From An Underground Education, by Richard Zacks:
quote:
...Pope Gregory VII (in office 1073-1085), who decreed that popes had absolute authority to crown emporers and kinfs. He wanted to bring all temporal power under his spiritual power, and his listed twenty-seven papal rights, including:
- "The Roman Church has never erred nor can it err until the end of time."
- "The pope can be judged by no one."
- "The pope alone offers his foot to be kissed by princes."
- "A rightly elected pope, is, without question, a saint, made so by the merits of Peter."
How's that?
