As these two religions were nourished, however, certain differences emerged; they are carried by their believers' faith to this day. The first difference is relates to the Pope. For the Roman Catholics, the Pope is infallible; he can contradict lower ranking church leaders. On the other hand, Greek Orthodox believers consider a 'highest bishop', also known as the 'first among equals'. This bishop is not infallible and does not have supreme authority over the churches.
