>Revelations 22:8-9. Read it and explain how doing what God commands is somehow less important than your "Tradition" (which is no less bogus whether you capitalize the "T", or not).
Do you ask others to pray for you? Same thing.

>Show me where it exists in the Bible.
Show me where it says you can only believe things in the Bible in the Bible.
The Bible is part of Tradition. It was created by Man to codify it. You're ignoring that. Why? Why are you going back to a document that was created by man as your ultimate authority, when Christ brought you a Church (that's what it says in the Bible you believe, so you're going to want to deal with that), not the Bible.

>Again, show me where it exists in the Bible.
Same regarding your elevation of the Bible.
Are you a Calvinist? I need to know who I'm debating so I understand your arguments. Because this issue in particular is very different if you're a Calvinist vs an Armenian vs a Leighton Flowers "Traditionalist".
>Doesn't claim the Pope can't sin, but when he interprets the Bible he cannot err because God told him what to say.
That's imprecise. He only is infallible in certain things.
>Take a look at the current occupant of the head of your church. "Who am I to judge?"
>You still agree with this nonsense?
The current Pope is Satanic. There is literally no doubt there. But I don't see how you're fighting that. You've conceded to him his authority. It's time to join together, brother, and fight against Satan on earth and restore it to His glory.
>We can go all day long if you choose.
I enjoy debating this. But I want to make sure it's understood I'm doing this in a sense of collegiality and an attempt to revere Christ our Lord. Can we at least start with the Nicene Creed to have some common ground?
