You show more faith in man, than you do in the wisdom of God. I don't want to hear you tell me who, or where, you think that the Church is. Take a look around you, research history, and consequently one will see that only a credulous and misguided person would believe that there is such an authority on earth.
Accept what God has given us, and accept the means by which He preserved His Word - extremely unconventional. This is the wisdom of God, it is not the wicked Papacy, nor the Byzantine, nor Protestant Churches, it is every man for himself. All men must come to God on their own, indoctrination will not save them, the Pope will not take responsibility for leading anyone astray, so don't put your faith in him, or any man, or any institution. God hates a haughty spirit, and this is indicative of such entities like the massive Churches on earth. In the same manner, He preserved His Word in a humble and unassuming manner - no autographs, only a fragmentary witness pre 3rd century, 400K variances, copies of copies of copies, etc... - no glory outside of the fact that we still have the words of salvation and edification.
