You're not logicing this out.I covered this in a previous post. The infallible institution doctrine that makes those running it as fallible and hence the institution is made for the hierarchy not the hierarchy for the institution and that my friend is the falibility of that doctrine, meaning those assuming headship of the institution are not qualified sinless beings who can claim to run it, however Jesus is fully qualified to run it as the head, which makes the religious institution hierarchy redundant.
Without hierarchy, there is chaos. So there has to be hierarchy. You can take the hierarchy God created, or you can choose to make your own. You, sir, are making your own. Specifically, you are making anarchy. No order, only chaos.
I never said the institution was made for the hierarchy. That was your leap to a conclusion. The hierarchy was made for the institution of the Church, to preserve the Truth which was deposited into the Church.
