الشرح
The bishop of Rome, called the pope, stood at the top of the western Church's organisation, above archbishops, bishops and the priests of the parishes across the Latin west. The eastern claim fails because after the Latin and Greek churches went their separate ways the eastern churches followed their own patriarchs rather than Rome.
