Best Answer

Jesus was born among the Jews as they were God's chosen people. After Jesus rose from the dead his followers (Jew, gentile, etc.) who believed his word became known as Christians. Catholic means universal (God's message was for all) the word used to describe God's church was first recorded at antioch in the early 100s.

When will the Catholic church elect a Jew as the new pope?

The requirements to be considered for the position of pope - one must be a male Catholic. That pretty much eliminates a Jew from consideration. The only way it could happen would be if the person was an ethnic Jew who had converted to Catholicism. Saint Peter was a Jew before he became a Catholic. Does that count?

If The apostles were jew's how did we get Catholic pope?

Jesus was Jewish, as were all members of the one Church of Christ shortly after Jesus died, including the apostles. Peter and Paul opened the church to everyone, not just Jewish people,since Jesus died for all. The church became "catholic", which means "open to all, universal" However, since the Great Schism, and particularly the Reformation, some people protested against corruption and evil within the Church and so these 'Protestants' now have their own churches such a the Anglican Church, Lutherans, Methodists and so on. So while these churches can still be called 'catholic' (with a small 'c') meaning universal, they are not part of the Roman Catholic Church, the branch of the Christian Church that is still under the authority of the Pope.
