Are you going to take orders from the Pope?

Maybe the following questions/comments from Charlie Gibson are fair:

You said recently, in your old church, "Our national leaders are sending U.S. soldiers on a task that is from God." Are we fighting a holy war?
"There is a plan and it is God's plan."
But then are you sending your son on a task that is from God?

However, to me they would be akin to asking a Catholic "Are you going to take orders from the Pope?". I highly doubt Charlie Gibson would ever ask a Catholic if he is going to take orders from the Pope, so why does he feel it is appropriate to challenge Sarah Palin's religious beliefs.
