The guy who represents an entity that throughout history has been corrupt, power hungry, started wars, hoarded riches, covered up sexual and physical abuses, telling others that if you don't go through them then you are not going to heaven is pretty arrogant and funny. In fact Jesus says that HE is the only way to heaven (John 14:6). He didn't say anything about the Vatican which is a completely separate entity created by the Romans aka the people who killed Jesus and the disciples and thousands of the early christians. If anything there is way more evidence that the Vatican has hijacked the name of Jesus for their own financial gain and is likely not the way to heaven but that is for people to decide for themselves "in their own way."
