Sorry, I have all sorts of problems with this list.

• 'Lama' and 'Enlightened' expand into other belief systems. I guess this is OK, but to be fair, we would have to add so many that there would now be about 150 levels.
• Evangelist and Patriarch would fall well below Apostle, let alone Pope
• Angel's aren't even human, and are on a completely separate track
• As there is only 1 Messiah, this might be a good candidate to put above Pope, with the current Papal restriction applied (and removed from its current title)

May I humbly submit the following possibilities:

• Whenever there is more than one eligible, we lock them in a room until white smoke comes out. The losers (if they are still alive), drop back to apostle again (and hopefully learn better hand-to-hand tactics) Perlmonks could probably afford top-of-the-line servers if we sold the rights to this to the UFC for PPV
• Popino - "little Pope"
• Pope of Greenwich Village
• I'm not a real pope but I play one on the Internet
• The artist formerly known as 'the Pope'
