Church authority is divided according to ranks, so the priest performs priestly duties of masses, church rituals, etc. within the parish in which he has jurisdiction. The bishop is in charge, besides church duties, to oversee the diocese, which is a collection of several parishes. The collection of more bishops is the archdiocese of which the archbishop is responsible. Cardinal is the rank, which is usually obtained by the Pope choosing a bishop or archbishop who is promoted to the cardinal. The Pope is the supreme undignified authority of the Roman Catholic Church
