I've never understood the reasoning behind the Pope. Why does the Catholic church have to have a hierarchy, and why is this so important?
My girlfriend is an ex-Catholic (now Christian), and she can't even explain it. Can anybody please explain for me?

The people are going to the Pope so the Pope deviler them from the sins. I do not really know how that should work.

And yet, the Bible teaches that only God can directly deliver people from their sins... Fucking stupid shit if you ask me. The Catholic Church is very corrupt.

The bible is overwritten by the kings in the time of the castles, and that stuff. the 15th century. The Bible is not trustworthy. BUT the Qurân has not been changed. There is also a prove: an old Qurân has been found which is 1,5k years old.

The Bible can also be traced back 2500 years. Both are just as fucking corrupt if you ask me.

No. The qurân is not corrupted at all. The Arabic one atleast. There are two ways of writing which can NOT be written in one way. In the Qurân it is. It is also a prove of how wonderful the Qurân is. You should read also the good things. Not the worse things like al-qaîda, it is even worse to take tha name, because it is a name of the US. And I see people trying to act cool and writting bs here. I just laugh.

Please explain to me how "believe me or go to Hell" is at all proper. It discourages free thought and use of free-will. RHP religions are like a disease.

This. A typically media affected human. Allah does not force you. IF you read the Qur'ân and be open for it you will automatically believe in it. If you are not interested and do not care about religion and Allah you can go to Hell.
