Default Do Roman Catholics and regular Catholics ALL follow the pope?

Do roman Catholics and regular Catholics all follow the pope and his beliefs? Do ALL roman Catholics and regular Catholics believe in his (the pope's) headdress and the cross and everything the pope does, says and all the symbols the pope believes in? Do roman Catholics and regular Catholics believe in paganism?

The first question...Yeah I'm pretty sure. Those in history that were once Catholics but didn't accept the papal authority created different sects.

How can symbols that symbolize elements of the Christian faith be pagan?

Do you even know what pagan is? I doubt it.

Yes all Catholics, eastern or western (Latin/Roman) believe in the supremacy of the pope.

No, no Catholics follow paganism. All Catholics believe in one God. And that he is a Trinity. if you need me to elaborate on this let me know

Catholics and Roman Catholics are the same thing.

Its not like Protestant Christianity with lots of different sects.

You can call it Paganism if you want to, just like most people think of Christian Fundamentalists as insane.

"regular Catholics" ARE Roman Catholics.

All Catholics officially recognize the pope as the head of the Catholic church and the supreme spiritual authority on Earth.

I don't know what you mean by "believe in his headdress." His headdress exists. That doesn't take a lot of belief. But it doesn't do anything. It just sits there on his head

Paganism is, by definition, non-Christian religion, and Catholicism is a branch of Christianity.

- Do roman Catholics and regular Catholics all follow the pope and his beliefs?
Yes, because he is the leader of the church and is guiding us.
-Do ALL Roman Catholics and regular Catholics believe in his (the pope's) headdress and the cross and everything the pope does, says and all the symbols the pope believes in?
Unless the Pope is wrong and is doing blasphemy that is against the original teachers, we do not follow him.
-Do roman Catholics and regular Catholics believe in paganism?
No. We believe in one God in Three Divine Persons.

Roman Catholics and Catholics are the same thing. It's just a different name, so all of them follow the Pope. No Catholics believe in paganism.

First question yes, not sure what you mean by believe in the headdress and the cross and such. And as for paganism no because Catholics are Chrisitian.
