      I'd say the idea that the Pope is always right. Got a lot of that from WASP friends growing up; they thought that Catholics literally believe the Pope is infallible. That's really not the case. I think papal infallibilty has been invoked like three times since the 1500s? And even then not without a shit-ton of controversy.

      As for your bet, :side-eye-1: :side-eye-2:

      There really isn't much difference. Catholicism has absorbed a lot, like a lot, of polytheistic influence over the centuries.
