@hpmuller, true Sunnis are against very thought of a pope.
That is actually the reason for schism between Shias and Sunnis.
What has happened is that some Sunnis want to emulate the Shias without saying so-hence their ideal of a Caliph.
It has always seemed to me that the Saudis wanted Muslims to look to their King as the so called Caliph, hence their financing of madressas and fundamentalist Jihadis. The ISIL has actually hoist them with their own pitard.
