I just read an article on Yahoo where President Bush, when asked what he saw in Pope Benedict's eyes (in reference to the President's statement that he saw Putin's soul in the Russian president's eyes), said he saw God.

If you look up the word "pope" in a thesaurus, one synonym it will throw out is "holy father."

Jesus said "Do not call anyone on earth your father; for One is your Father, He who is in heaven." (Matthew 23:9 NASB).
