Only God out ranks the pope.
In recent times the pope has been chosen from within the ranks of the cardinals. It is not a requirement, however.
They are: priest, monsignor, bishop, archbishop, cardinal and pope.
There are no candidates for the papacy. This is not like a political election. However, any male Catholic could, technically, be elected as pope.. However, the pope is usually chosen from within the ranks of the cardinals.
An internuncio is a papal envoy or messenger but ranks below a nuncio, or ambassador.
No. The Pope is traditonally only in Christianity (other faith leaders in modern faiths have sometimes taken this title), of which the famous Pope is Roman Catholic, there are other christian leaders hwo hold the tile for example the Pope of the Coptic Church.
The different church ranks within the hierarchy of the Catholic Church include the Pope, Cardinals, Bishops, Priests, and Deacons. The Pope is the highest-ranking official, followed by Cardinals who advise him. Bishops oversee dioceses, Priests lead individual parishes, and Deacons assist with various duties.
Your question makes little sense. A pope does not 'run' for election. Any male Catholic is potential candidate for pope but it is rare that someone out of the ranks of the cardinal electors is elected. Cardinals do not 'run' an election campaign. This is not like a typical political campaign.
Judaism is not a centralised religion and does not have a person who's the equivalent to the Pope. The title Rabbi means teacher and today Rabbis have a number of roles in Jewish life.
The hierarchical ranks within the Catholic Church are Pope, Cardinals, Bishops, Priests, and Deacons. The Pope is the highest authority, followed by Cardinals who advise him. Bishops oversee regions, Priests lead individual parishes, and Deacons assist with pastoral duties. This hierarchy influences the organization's structure by establishing clear lines of authority and decision-making processes, with ultimate decisions often made by the Pope or a council of Cardinals.
what ranks are
There are only three orders of the Holy Orders, the first is Deacon, the second is priesthood, and the third (AND FINAL) is Bishop. Every single Archbishop, Cardinal, and Pope are all just Bishops when it comes right down to it. Archbishop, Cardinal, and Pope are three "ranks" if you will, above that of Bishop, but only in administration, they are all equally bishops.
