Evidence for God from Science

This has been a yearning question for me.

What exactly is the Biblical justification for the Pope? I've heard, just about from all sources, that it is from Matthew 16 that the Pope is ordained by Jesus. My opinions on this passage are mixed, for I do not know ancient Hebrew and cannot accurately translate exactly what was said to Peter. It is my hope that perhaps one of you can.

However, I would like to know some opinions on this issue. I prefer to keep my faith anonymous at this point in time as to avoid any kind of bias in anyone's answers.

Thanks for your time and thought.

This is the best I can do for you now, but I'll do a little more searching and see what I can find.

It doesn't matter if you know Hebrew or not because the NT is in Greek.
