In answering the question what is the differences between the Prophet and the Pope..I can give you my opinion based on my LDS upbringing.

The Prophet (also known as the President of the LDS Church) is a prophet over all the inhabitants of the earth. He has a stewardship as a prophet over everyone. Now people have a choice to believe that or not. I truly believe that and that is my opinion.

The Pope as I see it..is over Catholics. He has a stewardship over Catholics. Now not to be taken that I don't see the importance of the Pope to the many Catholics of the world. The Popes during my lifetime have been great men. Have stood up for many of the same values that we as LDS have.
